Deepening Your Draft: A Revision Writing Class

Have you started a story or essay and gotten stuck? Is there a novel you've worked on in fits and starts that could use greater focus? In this class, we’ll explore narrative building blocks—voice, tone, character development, setting, and plot—as well as the nitty gritty of sentence construction as we consider helpful strategies for revision and completion. We'll talk about what holds our writing back, from practical concerns like structuring your time to the subtler obstacles in the work itself. You'll have the opportunity to receive support from a warm, constructive community with prompts designed to help you discover new perspectives on your work in progress.

This class is ideal for writers of all levels. Each participant will be expected to come to the meeting prepared to discuss the reading material and to write.
