In this workshop, we’ll focus on short fiction revision. How do you improve a good draft, whether it’s via expansion or compression, or a mix of both? What can contemporary short fiction teach us about our own writing? Each week we will workshop short stories, honing in on craft elements, and discuss published work as a group.
