Finding and Freeing Your Voice
All Levels | Voice breathes life into writing, makes it sing, and draws readers in. Defining voice is difficult, but you can learn how it works by practice-writing in different voices. We’ll read diverse voices and complete six exercises designed to help you find a more authentic writer’s voice, free your voice, control tone, and generate new work. Dare to break out of your habitual voice, subvert the dominant voice in your head, and risk writing in unfamiliar, odd, or wild voices.
Beginning Fall 2021, we will be adding select in-person classes back to our course catalog. The majority of our classes will still be offered via Zoom.
If a class says IN-PERSON in its title, it will take place in person at our permanent home in Seattle.
If a class says ASYNCHRONOUS in its title, it will take place on Wet Ink, our asynchronous learning platform.
If a class does not have a marker after its title, it will take place via Zoom.
