Revision One-Nighter
Description:
In this one-night workshop we will discuss the art and craft of revision as an integral part of the creative process. By starting with the assumption that a revision requires us to “see again” the work at hand, to see it in fresh and new ways, we will explore some ways to actively re-vision our work.
Who Should Attend: Writers at every level and in every genre will benefit from this class.
