Grab your notebook and a pen, and let's write! The Page & Pen Writing Workshop meets every six weeks and is open to anyone who wants to improve their creative writing skills. Session formats vary and may include writing exercises, discussion about technique and process, sharing ideas for organizing work sessions and workspaces, or exploration of any challenges you may be facing in the struggle to write.

Topic for this session: Planning and Structure

Do you create an outline before you write? Do you start madly typing without a plan and then see where it all leads? Do you structure your poems ahead-of-time? If you're planning a novel, do you know how it ends before you start? Nonfiction writers: do you identify a goal before you begin your work?

There are countless ways to approach the planning of any writing project. Let's see how many of them we can investigate during our one-hour session.

This program is open to anyone at any time: drop in once, attend every session, or show up every once in a while -- no long-term commitment is required. Space is often limited, so please register in advance.
