1Tue-1B-8a: Managing Your Muse: A Creative Writing Workshop
Class | Registration opens 7/28/25 10:00 AM
Unlock your creativity and join in a generative writing workshop based on the Amherst Writers and Artists method. Embrace your unique voice and creative genius in a supportive, non-critical environment. Write from prompts or your own inspiration and receive constructive feedback to nurture your artistic growth. No matter your background or writing genre, this is a workshop where your writing is celebrated and your craft can flourish.
The class is workshop style, with time spent partly in writing, from either prompts or the writer's own inspiration, followed by voluntary sharing of writing and commentary. No prep time is needed
