INSPIRATION CLASS SERIES
Introduction: Connecting with Your Authentic Voice
This intensive is open to students at any point in their class journey, and is geared toward writers who want to get past their inner critics and creative blocks to consistently access their most potent writing.
With the more “subjective” aspects of writing – like emotion, character, and dialogue – it’s easy to mistakenly believe that our talents are either innate…or nonexistent. This just isn’t the case. Through tangible tools and exercises, we will work on writing from an unfiltered space, finding your authentic voice, strengthening your imagination, and discovering memorable characters and dialogue. Our goal is to create a supportive writing practice that is sustainable – not grounded in self-flagellation, guilt, or anxiety.
Writing is hard, but it shouldn't be painful.
Advanced: Expanding Your Authentic Toolkit
The class will move beyond the tools of the Introduction class to help writers practically bring their authentic voice into their real world writing process. This intensive will focus on:
- Crafting story elements and structure using your intuition and authentic voice as the starting guide
- Developing unique and surprising worlds
- Creating diverse character voices through research and voice-tuning, specifically focusing on people who sound nothing like you
- Staying connected to your confidence and purpose while receiving feedback and navigating rewrites
- Giving feedback and running writers’ groups in a way that supports each member’s authentic voice
This advanced exploration of the subjective skills of writing is open to students who have completed “Connecting with Your Authentic Voice” and want to go deeper and further. Please note: unlike the Introduction class, this intensive will feature regular feedback from the teacher and classmates on each student’s writing.
