Writing from Scratch: A Creative Writing Workshop

Empower Your Self!!

In this three-hour, hands-on workshop, we will concentrate on learning poetic techniques concentrating on the short poetic forms of haiku, senryu, and tanka. We will then use what we've learned about poetry and apply it to writing prose fiction. In the prose section we will learn how to draft an ending to your novel and block out your chapters before you even begin writing your story! This is one of two workshops Eileen is offering. If you are not yet ready to draft out an ending to your story, Eileen is offering a second workshop on December 5th that will concentrate on the fundamentals of the English sonnet and its iambic pentameter rhythm in the first half, and the early stages of character development in the prose segment of the workshop.

Contact Eileen if you are interested in attending one or both of these workshops at [email protected], or visit her website at www.EileenAlbrizio.com for further details.

Light refreshments are available.
