About this Event
We love writing—it's part of who we are—but sometimes it can be really, really hard. Maybe you've hit a wall with your current project, or maybe you haven't even picked up a pen in months. In this purely generative session, we'll discuss what it means to build a healthy writing practice: how to stay curious under pressure, and what to do when fatigue or frustration strikes. Then, we'll dive into a set of micro-exercises designed to help us recapture a sense of joy in our work.
Age group: adult | Genre: any | Required experience: none! | What to bring: pen and paper
MEET THE INSTRUCTOR
Madelin Parsley grew up in the panhandle of Nebraska. She holds an M.F.A. in fiction from Vanderbilt University, and her short stories have appeared in Ploughshares and Narrative Magazine. She's currently working on a novel about five siblings, two small towns, and a family dynamic that is shaped and reshaped by grief. She has taught classes for writers of all ages and interests—in schools, community centers, libraries, and once in the heart of a Tennessee swamp.
