This workshop is applicable to fiction and nonfiction, including memoir. Margo and Jeanette have taught writing workshops together for five years and both have decades of experience with writing, publication and instruction. Their goal is to support and encourage participants to achieve their best, through interactive discussions, writing exercises, readings and homework. The latter are designed to ensure the production of five (or more) polished scenes. Sign up early because seats are limited and the instructors will begin work with you before the first class. Registrants are asked to write a ‘premise statement,’ a brief story synopsis (with instructions provided.) The instructors will use Google Classroom as an interactive means of sharing writing, peer and instructor responses and resources.
