About this Event

Build community amongst other writers and hone your craft in this 4-week creative writing deep dive, Thursdays, January 9, 16, 23, & 30. We will focus on different narrative-building elements during each session, including characterization, setting, pacing, voice, and more. We will spend time writing together and will each have an opportunity to give and receive feedback in a safe and respectful environment. All genres and all writing levels are welcome!
