You’re sick of sitting alone in your room. You want some feedback you can trust, and moreover, you want to see what other good writers are doing with their fiction. This workshop will gather together people of like minds, working hard and willing to be supportive. Do you hook readers in right away? Do your characters live and breathe? If this kind of deep reading and insightful questioning sounds appealing, please submit your best five pages of fiction to laura.spencer@{{{{homeurl_non_www}}}} by December 13, 2019. Note: Please do not register for the course prior to being accepted.

Teaching Style: If it’s fun for you, it’s fun for me. I lead the workshop so that it resembles our writing—focused, creative play. I’m interested in building community in the session and beyond.
