How to Shape a Compelling Scene- in a novel, play, screenplay, memoir, short story…

The Writers’ Workshop Series provides creative support to writers of all stages of experience working in any type of genre.  Each session of six sessions would integrate three components:

1. Creativity-sparking exercises and games to help writers develop particular writing tools or skills
2. The (optional) sharing of a small sample of writing with the group to generate conversation (not judgment) about the ideas expressed in the writing.
3. Work with one or more writing prompts to generate a writing sample (in any genre) for the next session.

Each of six 90-minute sessions focuses on a particular writing tool or skill needed for almost any type of writing. The purpose of the sessions is to provide strategies to stimulate creativity, training in writing tools, and the support of a non-judgmental writing community.
