Meet Chris and learn more about his style through a Q&A.
June 15–19, 9:00 to 11:30 AM MDT
The most important decision a writer makes is who tells their story. In this workshop, we will examine each other's manuscripts primarily through the lens of point of view and by using the concept of narrative strategy, but we will also take each manuscript as a whole and discuss how all the craft elements are working together. The primary question we will ask is, "How can the manuscript be a stronger, deeper version of itself?" This workshop is open to short story writers and novelists with stand-alone excerpts.
Applications are due for the Advanced Workshops by March 9. Apply here!
Accepted participants will submit 5,000 words or fewer by Monday, May 18, and will have the opportunity to meet one-on-one with Chris during the week of class.
