Event Details

Creativity is that elusive flutter of light at the edge of your vision that disappears when you look directly at it, but there are a few secrets to tapping into your creativity. This generative workshop uses playful constraints to help you discover aspects of your writing you didn’t know were there. We’ll also talk about how to “find the story” through freewriting and revision.

This program is part of a three part series, please join us for Writing Short for Impact on August 9th and Elevating your Writing on August 16th.
