The Creative Writing Workshop is led by Ann Black, a certified leader in the method developed by Pat Schneider, founder of Amherst Artists and Writers and author Writing Alone and With Others.
The Workshop is a disciplined but non-hierarchical environment. Writers are guided to grow and deepen their writing through prompted writing exercises that invite experimentation with content, genre, tone, voice and point of view. Each participant is invited to read their work; other members respond to those things in the writing that are moving and memorable.
A new Workshop begins at the PAradigm Art Gallery on Tuesday, February 6. The series lasts for 8 weeks; the group meets every Tuesday evening from 7:00 to 9:30. Registration is required.
Fiction is story. Where it comes from -- either the past or the present, remembered history or utterly imagined magic -- is irrelevant. Fiction is another way of telling the truth. Pat Schneider
