Whether it's due to lack of support, micro-aggressions, or a difficult world, artists are sensitive and often our own worst critics.

We'll uncover what causes imposter syndrome in all of us and use simple but proven effective techniques to address the root of what silences us.

No matter whether we are beginners or professional writers, we all face the blank page. In this workshop you'll learn how to leverage those anxieties and integrate them into your process.

We'll use the universal elements that run through all types of narrative writing in our own writing through guided writing exercises engineered to help you immediately apply them to your work.

We'll begin drafting work in class and you will receive both instructor and peer feedback on your writing that you can immediately implement to make your specific project come into focus.

We'll go over how to use goal-setting techniques and forecasting and how to use these strategically to map out the rest of your month and year creatively, always careful to allot for real life situations and the creative context. We'll plan out our creative year together.
