Service Description

I'm bringing back one five-week workshop, because past participants have asked for it--and I adore you all! Thank you. I believe in the power of reading work out loud to each other, conversation, multiple worldviews, sharing wisdom and insights. March 1st-March 29th. Five Weeks. 10:30-Noon, PST This five-week, online Zoom-based workshop has a focus on looking at your writing and offering ways to revise, to make your work-in-progress as strong as it can be. All participants will have the opportunity to share work and receive detailed feedback and suggestions. The goal of workshop is to support writers from rough draft to increasingly polished manuscript pages, ending with ideas for ongoing revision. Participants will: *Meet for five Sundays, online, at 10:30 AM Pacific time (west coast) * find an active, supportive audience for work-in-progress * share work-in-progress * read work aloud; if reading your work to others is a new practice, you will gain experience and confidence. (You can do it!) * write and revise, while clarifying creative goals * work from a point of identifying strengths and building forward from those strengths * learn methods for offering constructive critique of the work of others, through developing a shared understanding of creative and perhaps aesthetic values *consider the markets * come away with ideas for revision and insights regarding work-in-progress * strengthen a sense of how an audience hears or comes to understand the work in question Space is Limited. This is an individualized, highly personal conversation. It is not a lecture or a video, but a close look at your work, your writing, your concerns. It's a labor of love and support.
