Writing the Personal Essay


Adult Enrichment / Writing & Literature -
Spring 2024

Each session of this warm and welcoming class will explore the craft of personal essay writing through prompts to awaken the writing mind, readings of published essays to inspire your own work, and a longer generative session based around a topic. We’ll generate new writing, learn revision techniques, support each other’s writing, and develop and experiment with telling our personal stories. Writers at all levels of practice are welcome.
