These weekly creative writing workshops in Los Angeles (now online) are not lecture-based. We get right down to writing. We write from writing prompts based on either a theme of the week, education, craft, or creative value. There is no critique (as each piece you write is so new)–only much-needed positive reinforcement around the potential of each piece you write. You will also receive tips and tricks for writing better narratives and scenes. Through original and surprising prompts and craft discussions, you’ll write pages you never would have otherwise.
