What participants have said about Monica Corish's writing workshops

"Makes me write instead of thinking about writing"   John O.C

"I have been in writing groups in the past that were not so expertly directed as this one, groups that drifted nowhere in particular, and I soon dropped out of them. I'll be staying with this writers' workshop"    S.L.

Monica Corish is a trained AWA Writing Group Leader. Her creative writing groups, which she has been facilitating since 1998, have included both published writers and absolute beginners.  They are non-genre specific -- she provides prompts that can lead toward poetry, memoir or fiction, depending on the inclinations of each writer. The focus is primarily on generating new writing, but there is also time for constructive critique. To learn more about the AWA approach to writing, go to www.amherstwriters.com
