how do i create a new article
Posting a new article today about my fall writing class beginning Sept 29, 10 AM, for 4 weeks. Topic is "Short Shorts", works of 1000 words or less. Writers will work on "choice" works which will impact their work and create an emotional response from readers. The perfect example is Hemingway's 6 word entry
For Sale
baby shoes
never worn
Doesn't that elicit suprise, a jolt, sadness....wonder?
I'd like to help writers achieve those effects with their poems, essays, short stories...
When I heard Tim O'Brien speak about writing (Into the Lake of the Woods, The Things They Carried ) I was struck with the the power of a single word and its effect on a sentence/ paragraph. Concise impact of a written work is what writers will hope to achieve in this fall writing workshop.
If you're interested in participating, just email pat at writerscircle@q.com and I will supply more information. Classes are kept small; we're almost at our limit enrollment today. Thanks for reading.
