5 sessions every other week: June 11, June 25, July 9, July 23, August 6

Have you ever wanted to write fiction, a short story or longer? We’ll help you mold character, plot, description and narrative structure into fiction! Gather with writers who conjure tales of far away and nearby, who love telling stories and have many to tell. In an intimate and supportive group, learn how to hone your writing, explode it into something brand new, or extract it sentence by sentence from your imagination with cheers and encouragement from others. No judgments allowed – only constructive assessment to urge you on to finding and asserting your writer’s voice.

Format: Two or more participants will submit a story or chapter online to class members by the Sunday before the Wednesday class meeting date. Class members will prepare comments, suggestions, and editing corrections by that Wednesday and be ready to discuss those comments etc., in the class meeting. Printing each submission with comments and corrections added will be a useful tool for each writer when we meet. The two persons submitting will be expected to ask for specific feedback when emailing the story or chapter to others so that the class will have some direction while reading and commenting.

Resources/Expenses: None are anticipated.
