Open to published authors and brand-new writers, this is a rigorous workshop that combines prompts and in-class discussion of written work. The workshop is designed to challenge your censors and shake up your habits, and, most importantly, to encourage you to trust yourself as a writer. You will have homework daily, both as writing and short readings. Each student will have a private conference with me during the week.
By June 2, please submit a piece or excerpt of personal creative nonfiction, no more than 500 words, with your name on each page. This gives me a cursory sense of your craft and topic, which helps me shape our class. We will share these together on our first day.
