“What’s important is that you make the leap. Jump high and hard with intention and heart… It’s up to you to make your life. Take what you have and stack it up like a tower of teetering blocks. Build your life around that.”
From Tiny Beautiful Things by Cheryl Strayed.
The Caterpillar Workshop
The Caterpillar Workshop is an intro class for all levels, but is best for those that always wanted to be a creative writer, but found the task daunting. It’s also intended for writers who have felt beat down by previous creative writing workshop experiences. The first part of the course is generative and out of that you will develop one creative piece for workshop critique. We will meet in 90-minute sessions once a week for six weeks. (At this stage, you may retreat into your Chrysalis, but sometimes that’s the best thing you can do for a piece of writing!)

The Chrysalis Workshop
This intermediate writing workshop is for those that have a developed writing practice, and are in a place that critique on their work will be beneficial. Everyone will develop a piece of writing, and workshop it twice, with the goal that at the end of this six-week course it will be ready for submission. We will meet in 90-minute sessions once a week for six weeks. (Intended to emerge from the Chrysalis.)
