Revising Anew: Fiction/Nonfiction Workshop

Dates: 4 Wednesdays, April 18 - May 9
 
Time: 7 pm - 9 pm 
Instructor: James Wallenstein
Ages: Adult 
Maximum Enrollment: 9
Genre: Fiction/Nonfiction
Price: $245

Designed for Left Margin writers and those who've worked in other programs or on their own, this four-week course is an opportunity to jumpstart a draft story, novel section, memoir or nonfiction piece, sharing it with a community of readers and, with the help of their responses, revising it.

 

Rather than conceiving of revision as an extended series of corrections, we'll emphasize the creative freedom the process can offer, rewriting our own impromptu sketches, taking hints from a case history or two, and exploring the original sources for our projects, not only to reconnect with them but also to reawaken the inspiration they sprung from.
