This is a hands on class to help writers take their stories from being interesting to a can't-put-it-down quality. In a small group, we'll study the tricks of how to make writing engaging and memorable. Then we'll practice those tips on each others' stories with an eye to making each one more compelling and relatable to the writer's intended audience.
Participants must have a desire to improve their writing. They must also be willing to give and take suggestions about their own and other's stories in a safe environment.
NOTE: There are two tracks of this class being offered; one in person and one on Zoom. This is the in-person class.
