No matter your level of experience or the genre you’re drawn to, this workshop is designed to deepen your understanding of the craft and expand your awareness of the tools available to you as a writer. Our goal is to give the stories within you the space, structure, and support they need to flourish on the page.

Whether you’re just beginning or already immersed in a work in progress, the workshop will meet you where you are. We welcome writers of short and long fiction, memoir, and autobiography. For those inspired to explore heritage, memory, and personal history, we offer guidance on how to harvest lived experience and transform it into a compelling, resonant narrative.

Each session begins with a focused discussion of a key element of writing, followed by a workshop period dedicated to reading, critiquing, and reflecting on one another’s work. In a supportive, non-academic, and non-judgmental environment, we offer constructive feedback, practical advice, and encouragement to help you strengthen your voice and refine your craft.

This workshop may serve as a continuation of the previous session, Taming the Beast, for those wishing to further polish their writing, but it can also be taken entirely on its own.
