Fiction Writing with Lewis Robinson

Finding Your People: One of the best parts of reading and writing is that it allows us to meet and spend quality time with new, interesting, talkative, quiet, flawed, brilliant, villainous, adventurous, strange, polite, and rude people. In this workshop we’ll uncover, test, and deploy the fictional people we find.

Your Choice of Genre with Gibson Fay-LeBlanc

A Story is a Story is a Story: Whatever form or genre you're writing in these days--poems, flash fiction, novellas, screenplays--you need to find your story's beating heart, its beginning, middle, and end, and the tone and language that will carry it through to its closing. We’ll read some amazing opening gambits and discuss how they pull it off. We’ll try to write our own great openers, use them as tuning forks, and see where they take us.

Poetry Writing with Betsy Sholl

Poetic Voices: How many voices does one person have? We can shout and whisper, brood and joke, sigh and wonder. Somewhere in all those voices there are one or two that speak most fully about what matters to us and our works. In this workshop we’ll try on different voices and listen for which ones ring most true.
