Adult Writing Workshop: The Art of Writing Short Stories and Essays
Let’s get writing! This workshop will focus on writing essays and short stories of 600 words or less. Starting a long form project like a novel can feel overwhelming—why not get your creative juices flowing and a consistent writing practice established with something shorter? Having a limited word count can force you to carefully choose words, ruthlessly edit your work, and craft your short piece to perfection—all while keeping the elements that emotionally move the reader. We’ll talk about tools and techniques for taking your short piece from start to finish, including how to perceptively draw inspiration from your surroundings, effectively give your work “space” to let the story percolate, and more. An in-class exercise will focus on creating a story from a photograph, quote, or newspaper snippet.
