The Path to Story [Anthony Swofford]

Time: 12:00am - 12:00am PT
Capacity: seat
Member Price: $216.00
General Price: $240.00

Over this two-day generative workshop with Jarhead author Anthony Swofford, you will read the first pages of a number of fiction and nonfiction works and discuss “the path” into the works for the reader and the writer. With a series of creative prompts and group discussion, you’ll establish tactics for finding a way into story. On the second day, we will use small groups to workshop each writer’s new works and their steps toward establishing a world and narrative drive. Each participant will leave the workshop with the first pages of a new work-in-progress or a refreshed approach to established material.
