We believe in the power of writing to bring clarity and meaning to our lives.
We will share what we know about the writing process and the written artifact and point you towards other resources as needed.
We see our classes as stepping stones along the writing path. Whether your hope is to become a better writer; to become a more public writer; to prepare for an MFA program; or to learn more about publishing your work—we are here to share what we know.
Would you like to tell your life story, or parts of it, in poetry or memoir?
