How many times have you sat down to commit your great story idea to the page, only to run out of steam once the muse passes you by? Many writers labor under the assumption that great work is born from a flash of inspiration. In truth, creating a successful short story takes time and multiple layers of thoughtful, focused revision. This eight week intensive will combine close readings of short fiction with a regimented weekly drafting schedule. Workshopping both in small groups and as a class, we’ll work together to help each writer accomplish a common goal: a fully developed short story built from real life experience. As part of the fun, the instructor will also participate in the process.
