Add meaningful creativity to your week from the comfort and convenience of your home with this energetic and engaging virtual workshop.
This long-established creative writing workshop, successfully operating since 2003, now meets online via Zoom to bring dynamic generative writing practice directly into your personal creative space.

Enthusiastically open to writers of all genres, styles, and experience levels, from brand new to advanced.
- Develop fresh new pieces using carefully selected and thoughtful writing prompts
- Receive practical, actionable guidance for writing more compelling and engaging scenes
- Understand precisely what makes your writing effective and why certain passages resonate

- Complete multiple pages of original, polished material

This interactive workshop emphasizes hands-on active writing rather than passive lecture-based instruction. We collectively select all writing prompts based on weekly themes, educational value, craft development principles, or creative exploration. Since each piece you write is freshly created during the session, we focus exclusively on constructive feedback and enthusiastic recognition of each work's creative potential rather than detailed critique. You will receive practical, applicable techniques for improving narrative craft and structure, and through thoughtful prompts and engaging craft discussions, you will write passages and pieces you never would have created alone while gaining applicable creative writing tools.
