When I say ‘work’ I only mean writing. Everything else is just odd jobs.

—Margaret Laurence

In this eight-week workshop, study the art of fiction with master storyteller Megan Kruse. We’ll generate ideas for short stories or novel chapters, identifying key emotions. We’ll develop compelling scenes that move our stories forward, work on characterization, dialogue, pacing, voice, and other elements of successful fiction. Weekly deadlines, feedback, writing exercises and short readings will keep you feeling inspired & generating new work.
