Writing Workout

About This Event

What: Bring paper and pen or your laptop, and get ready to write! In each session, we'll provide six new writing exercises to motivate and inspire you, after which we'll leave time to share and discuss our work. All levels and genres welcome.

Cost: Standard drop-in rate is $25. You're also welcome to choose a reduced rate of $18 or a pay-it-forward rate of $30, if one of those suits your budget.

Please note: This class meets at Charmers Cafe, but food and beverage service will not be available. Feel free to bring your own drinks and quiet snacks.

Instructor: Kate Harding, owner of JSB. This is primarily a generative writing class, so the amount of instruction will be limited, but for the record, she holds a Ph.D. in narrative nonfiction and an M.F.A. in fiction. She's taught creative writing at StoryStudio Chicago and Northwestern University, and she's published a few books of feminist nonfiction.
