Siobhan Fitzpatrick
The "Express Yourself Through Creative Writing" workshops focus on the personal essay. The best personal essays reach out to the reader and connect. They make you laugh, cry, teach you something new, and let you live someone else's experience. For the writer, the personal essay can be a powerful tool, allowing you to transform the worst experiences into meaningful, cathartic substance -- or to share the best experiences and live them again and again.
But personal essay writing is also a craft. What separates a compelling personal essay from mere recounting a story?
In this workshop, you learn:
* What makes a powerful personal essay
* How to find a narrative voice to weave throughout your work
* How to know what to leave in and what to leave out
* How to edit your own work
