Get Unstuck: Fiction Bootcamp
Crushed by writer’s block? Trapped in a rut? Need some gentle motivation or a sharp kick in the pants? No matter what’s stopping you, this generative workshop is designed to get your mind whirling and fingers flying. We’ll use images, lists, sounds, brainstorming, and other prompts to help grease your gears. Use this workshop however you want: to write brand-new work, jumpstart your work-in-progress, or both! There might just be an idea ready to get shaken loose. Unstuck writers also welcome (come for the new ideas and writing fun). Suitable for all fiction genres.
