About The Event

This is a 10 week course where participants will use all types of writing – short stories, poetry, screenplays, essays – as springboards to create their own works. Initially, we will discuss the 5 basic elements of good writing and the very necessary punctuation which is vital to good communication. Participants will share their work – volunteers only – and are encouraged to work collaboratively while discussing literature. These literature forums will generate ideas and provide a different insight into the works being studied.
