Asking the Right Questions II: Editing

This class is designed to delve deep into the questions that can guide the editing process. The best memoirs explore very specific questions that obsess the writer. Discovering the questions within your personal obsessions and learning how to keep them alive as you edit, as opposed to killing them dead with an easy answer, will unlock your story’s heart. We’ll discuss how to recognize our own questions and then put them to work on the page. This class stands on its own or can be paired with Asking the Right Questions I: Generating Writing.
