Poring over selected stories to see how authors make them work, in-class exercises to try some of the things we discuss, generating new work, or continuing to work on a piece in progress—fiction or non-fiction. We’ll focus on the elements of story, based on your writing and our discussion about things what’s puzzling you in your work. Such things as character development, dialog, dynamic setting, precise language, metaphor, beginnings, endings, story shape, etc. 

Please Note: Workshop meets four Thursday mornings: Oct 3, 10, 17, & 24 at the GWC.
