Bare Scenes: A Beginner's Fiction Workshop

A pay what you can, beginner friendly fiction writing workshop where participants write several short scenes to expand later.
About this Event

In this generative workshop, writers will utilize poetry, photos and novel excerpts as inspiration to write a handful of short scenes that they can take home with them and expand, to develop them into bigger fiction projects. This is a low stakes, communal environment where writers are encouraged to share their work with the group and receive positive and encouraging feedback. No experience is required. This is a pay what you can event, with a suggested donation of $10.
