Discover how to take on the hard stuff in your writing with artfulness and clarity. In this 90-minute workshop, you’ll explore what makes certain material feel difficult to us as individual writers; examine craft techniques for approaching difficult material (such as playing with point of view, finding language in research, or rooting the writing in a place that feels sturdy and safe); and then try out some of the skills we can use to transform our own hard stories into literature.
