*Limited to 6 writers*

Do you have a personal essay you’ve been working on and feel it’s almost ready for pitching? Are you interested in having your essay read and workshopped by a small group of writers?

Elevate your prose by identifying what is essential to your story. Tighten syntax; enhance metaphor and lyricism; hone your tone and structure; and apply creative elements that support your writing. 

In this six-week personal essay intensive, you will work closely with two experienced instructors, essayist Terri Linton and poet Carrie Aberle. We’ll work alongside you – The Revisionist!

Here’s what you’ll get:

• One essay (no more than 3,000 words) twice workshopped by five other writers whose feedback will aid in and deepen your revision.

• Verbal and written feedback from Terri and Carrie identifying ways to further evolve your essay.

• Instructor-led mini-lessons specifically tailored to address emerging craft-based needs of the group.

• The opportunity to engage with and learn from the work of other writers.

• A revised essay ready for pitching.

• Guidance on how and where to pitch your essay for publication.
