Interesting Program Offered by Associate Lisa Marguerite Mora
February 9th, 2008ONLINE WORKSHOP–WORDSMITH CREATIVE WRITING WORKSHOP—Finding the Words in the Writer and the Writer in the Words.
Improvisational writing exercises & one submission for in-depth critique of work prepared for that purpose. Eight weeks; BEGINS EVERY THURSDAY; cost $110.
Format: I would send you a writing prompt/exercise. You would send me your piece over the weekend and I would give you gentle feedback—what was effective, what was memorable, to encourage the generation of new work and new ideas, hone various writing skills, and offer a place for your work to be heard. You would also have the opportunity during the eight weeks, to send in up to 15 pages of something you have worked on that you would like to bring to the next level. I would give it a thorough critique with separate written notes and editing suggestions.
Participant Comments:
“I like the edits you make and the notes…..they pull my scattered mind “together” and this is a piece I’ll come back to. Thank you, thank you.”
“I think this is a fantastic exercise because, for me, in fiction in particular, I am always astonished at the ways a writer can choose to reveal the essence of a character. Fantastic exercise.”
