We will also learn and practice drafting techniques that will energize your writing.

What sentence-level devices make flash narratives compelling?

What sets flash narratives apart from other narrative forms?

What is a Moment of Being?

We’ll discuss these topics and more, and we’ll come away with lots of story drafts.
