This workshop is for beginning and experienced writers of novels, short stories, plays, TV scripts, and screenplays. In an unstructured format you'll find a place to try out your ideas and receive support from your peers. Reading aloud, thoughtful critique, open discussion, and listening are each session's theme. Discussion and practice will center on plot, character, dialogue, setting, tone, and point of view. The atmosphere is relaxed and non-judgmental and provides a safe haven for presenting work.
Assignments are available for the beginning writer.
