4-Week: Writing Your Way out of Writer's Block

Every writer gets stuck: there are the lags in the middle of the novel when we just don’t know where we’re going with the characters or the plot or any of it. We’ve gotten past the exciting start of our memoir, and now ask ourselves, “where did all of my good ideas go?”

These four sessions will provide exercises proven to help get out of these slumps. Within each class, we’ll share our struggles (because this is important), discuss why we are struggling (and this will lead to open discussion about character development, plotting, point of view, etc.), work on an exercise, and then chat about how it helped, knowing that we will redo that exercise on our own over the next week.
