Transforming Chaos into Art: A Workshop in Fiction & Memoir Transforming Chaos into Art: A Workshop in Fiction & Memoir August 18 to August 23, 2019 Tuition: $650 Workshop: 9am-12pm Discipline: Fiction OPEN TO ALL On-site Housing Available

The most helpful writing workshops are ones in which the group acts as a single organism, its sole purpose being to help the piece of work at hand become its best possible self. Memoir, fiction – it’s all storytelling. Whether you’re bringing in pages of a memoir-in-progress or a work of fiction, we approach the page with an eye towards structure, character, voice, place, detail. Find the tenacity and take-no-prisoners courage to do your finest work.

Please submit a 12 page (double-spaced, 12 pt. font) memoir or fiction manuscript to Dawn Walsh at dwalsh@fawc.org by August 9. Also, please bring 11 copies of the same manuscript to the first class meeting.
