Creative Nonfiction 101

Whether you’re new to nonfiction, are curious about new tips and tricks, or you’re just looking for a little inspiration—this Creative Nonfiction 101 class is just the place.

In this workshop, Georgia Knapp will go over the basic needs when writing nonfiction stories, tips to keep the reader engaged, and the different methods to have on hand in your writing toolbox. This class will combine both lecture and writing exercises (sharing with the group is encouraged but not mandatory!).
