Each of us has a writing voice that is distinctly our own. Creative nonfiction is a great tool for discovering and unearthing that inner voice. As we tap into memories and the elements that make us who we are, we allow our refined stories to surface in a way that is uniquely our own. In this 3-session workshop, students will use texts and writing exercises to dig and discover who they are, what they think, and how to capture their voice on the page. This course is open to writers of all skill levels, 18+.
