In this four-part workshop from April 13 to May 4, 2021, we’ll use weekly readings and writing prompts to study what makes successful creative nonfiction essays tick and how to produce your own essays in this genre. Topics include: Brainstorming for writable ideas, plotting your narrative arc, conducting research, and bringing it all together with effective storycraft. Expect to write 2-3 pages weekly for in-class discussion. At conclusion of the workshop, participants may submit up to 1500 words for instructor feedback.
Proceeds from this workshop will help fund Arts + Literature Laboratory’s ALL in for the Arts Campaign.
