This fun workshop will take your imagination and creativity and teach you some basic skills that you can use to improve your writing.  We'll talk about where we can get ideas from and how to turn them into great stories.  We'll also talk about characters, plot, dialogue, setting and themes, among other tools of good storytelling.  In addition, we will read aloud our latest writing and offer suggestions and advice.  If you have something you've already written, please bring it to the first class.  Each student will complete the class with at least one finished story.
