This talk will explore the potential of constraints to humble and liberate. Through a combination of exercises and close-readings, we will reimagine creation as an act of curiosity and problem-solving.

Each 90-minute class will be presented virtually and will focus on a specific aspect of writing craft. Sign up for one or attend them all! All writing levels are welcome.
