As soon as we obtain enough interest in this class we will be in touch to work out a meeting time that works for the group. Thank you for keeping your May 2026 availability up to date!
This class needs more votes by April 1 to get confirmed.
This module is a standing candidate which means it will be ready to launch as soon as it gets enough interest. Token holders can set aside a Token to reserve their seat for class and help it get confirmed.
This two-module series introduces friends who are ready to try writing to some tools of the craft. Nearly a century ago, Dorothea Brande wrote Becoming a Writer — a guide to discovering writing that really hasn’t been outdone since! We use Brande’s guidance, journaling, writing experiments, and writing prompts to discover the individual student’s optimal writing conditions and strengths as well as to develop their repertoire of skills and techniques. The cohort will build trust in each other and the always-supportive Collaborative Feedback Method as they optionally share their pieces and read encouragingly for each other.
