When I am Stuck: A Fiction Class

When I am wrestling with a story that has nagged me for years, or a new story that seems dull or lifeless and needs a boost, I begin a list of things, curious things I know or have read about, and without fail I spark a lively narrative. In this class we will share a list of topics that will invigorate your writing. Come prepared to write, to dream, to read aloud, and to find new pathways to enliven your stories. Come prepared to have fun! - Debra Magpie Earling

"How infinitely rich and beautiful life is in every way . . . so many things that one goes worrying about are of no importance whatsoever. All sorrows can be borne if you can put them into a story.” Isak Dinesen
