SPECIAL SATURDAY WORKSHOP!

Perfect for tuning up for the Crossroads Contest!
Capped Workshop--Only a few seats left!

Work with Fractured Lit Editor, Tommy Dean!



Join us for a generative writing session focused on writing microfiction!
 Microfiction demands that the writer consider every word, every use of craft, and narrative design. Writing these stories is a challenge but a fun one! In this class, we’ll focus on stretching our use of brevity and word choice to imbue our microfiction with electricity and resonance. We’ll look at brand-new model texts and hopefully get inspired by the new writing prompts! Need a jump start to your writing, want to try writing with extreme brevity, or just want to spend some time writing? I hope you’ll come write with me!

WORKSHOP RATES:
