Dig Deep: Writing the Past

$125.00
Only 4 available

Mondays, March 4, 11, 18, and 25, 7-8:30 PM (ET)
Format: Zoom (learn more)

Embark on an archaeological journey to a landscape where your memories and your imagination dwell together. Whether you write memoir, personal essay, family history, or historical fiction, this four-week prose workshop will inspire you to write the truth of the past and connect it to the truth of the present.

Exercises will include ways of excavating past sensations, emotions, and personal history and then working with your imagination to fill in the blanks and mold a narrative arc. You'll also learn how to establish a theme, balance scenes and narration, develop real or fictional characters, and get unstuck.

If you're working on a project, this workshop will help you sculpt it. If not, it will help you break ground.

Enroll at the early-bird price ($100) through February 15 or the regular price ($125) through March 4.
