Have you always wondered about writing a short story? In this weekly course, participants will learn the art of the short story. Through reading the work of established and emerging writers, discussing the fundamental aspects of fiction, and completing short exercises, writers will develop their skills in the craft of short fiction and create a piece of their own. By the end of the course, participants will have a draft of a short story and a roadmap for where to take their work next.
This workshop welcomes writers and creators of all levels and backgrounds.
This class takes place IN PERSON at the Workshop in the ArtsHub Ortona (9722 102 St. NW, Edmonton, AB T5K 0X4, click here for the map).
