Whether you've never written creatively before or you're a more experienced writer looking for a recharge, your mission in this course is simple: devote three hours of your week to writing. Through a series of engaging writing exercises, we will mine our experiences and imagination for material and bring what we find to life on the page. With an eye on craft and an openness to inspiration, we will read and discuss short pieces (fiction, non-fiction, poetry, etc.) by a variety of writers. All participants will have an opportunity to read work in progress and get brief and in-class constructive feedback. We will set personalized writing goals and support each other in meeting these goals, in a generative and supportive environment.
Driving to the center? For evening or weekend classes, we recommend SP+ Parking at 45 Binford Street for the most affordable parking around. It's about a 10-minute walk to GrubStreet and offers a flat rate of:
$8 after 4pm Monday-Friday
$5 all day Saturday-Sunday
