Start Your Novel This Summer


Biff Mitchell’s Writing Hurts Like Hell Spring Workshop

 
Put aside just four evenings and do something you’ve always dreamed of…start your novel―the one you’re always talking about. The Writing Hurts Like Hell Spring Workshop will give you the tools to start and finish your novel no matter how busy your schedule. You’ll learn how to create characters that breathe and worlds that intrigue. You’ll learn how to get your ideas out of your head and onto paper or screen where you can see them and turn them into a story. You’ll defeat personal demons. Plus, you’ll have fun! Classes will be in malls, bars, outdoors (weather permitting)―everywhere. No experience needed…we start from scratch.

Though the emphasis will be on fiction, whether you want to write a novel, short stories, poetry, business or technical documents or just write emails that will astound your friends…this workshop will get your creative juices flowing. Try your first class free before you decide if this is really for you.

6:30 PM till 8:30 PM
