CREATIVE WRITING LI WORKSHOP—FICTION AND NONFICTION
Do you have a story you’ve always wanted to tell? Are you midway through a writing project and need editorial guidance?
This workshop offered by Creative Writing Long Island (CWLI) is open to all writers of prose, beginner to advanced, in all genres and forms of fiction and nonfiction, including flash pieces, chapters, essays, short stories, letters and memoir.
In this workshop, we will first work to identify your writing goals and to generate material. From there, we will cover the elements of craft and work to incorporate these elements into your own writing. As part of this plan, you will produce pages weekly and bring them to the workshop for constructive critique. We may also read and analyze selected short stories and essays to learn how to read like a writer, and consider how others handle craft and technique.
Whether your goal is personal enrichment or publication, this workshop is a unique, affordable opportunity to get professional help and share your creative work in a safe, nurturing space.

The six-week workshop will run Saturday mornings in Massapequa, beginning in March from 10:00- 12:00, and the cost is $150 per student. Space is limited. To reserve, email heathersiegel8888@gmail.com
