Emerson Arts Group: Short Story Writers' Workshop 5.00 5.0011

Meet other local writers and offer one another feedback in a relaxed environment. The workshop will meet for two hours, approximately: we will dedicate one to writing exercises and the other to critiquing one another's works in progress. Participation immediately makes you eligible to win the Emerson award honoring the best short story admitted in 2009. The award is $1000.

Space is limited and registration required. Please send a short writing sample (one paragraph to a few pages) to cruppert@hotmail.com.

      I've hammered out some of the details, including fees, dates and submission length. Workshop participants do not have to pay a fee, provided they submit their stories by November 15th.
