Quick-n-Dirty Spec Fic
Facilitated by Déy Rivers
Wanna play in alternate worlds? It’s challenging but glorious here! Join us for an Intro to Spec-Fic. Learn what is considered Speculative Fiction. Get ideas down using artwork as inspiration to explore spec-fic lines of thinking: “What if..”, “If only…” and “If this goes on…” Walk away with writing to possibly expand or refine later.

Writing True Characters
Facilitated by Katie Cusumano
In this workshop, we’ll practice creating lively, compelling characters who are drawn from real life, on the page. First, we’ll focus on writing about other people — and then, we’ll turn to ourselves, learning how to use our feelings and point of view to craft a great narrator for memoirs and personal essays.
