Instructor: Barbara Shoup

The essays and blog posts we love to read often start out being about something quite ordinary, then surprise and delight us as they twist and turn, revealing the writer’s mind in-process. This workshop will help you learn to approach your own work with an open mind, surprising and delighting yourself with new possibilities and, at the same time, controlling the shifting focus as the process of writing reveals what you really want to say. Fiction writers and poets will also find it useful.
