A 5-Week Fiction Workshop
Thursdays: January 2nd - January 30th, 6-9 PM
Is your writing in need of a swift kick in the butt? Are you stuck mid-story and lack the drive to move forward? Maybe you’re not writing at all these days and want a jolt to get you going.
This writing boot camp will definitely get you out of a rut. Whether you hope to discover more about a character you are already working with, or if you have no idea of where to start a new story, the workshop will get you moving in some new and interesting directions. Each session will engage the writers through prompts of sentences, situations, and word choices. There will be lots of writing and sharing. And oh yeah…. there will be sweat.
Are you ready for some hard work? Do you want to generate new ideas? Join us.
