Do you have a story brewing in your imagination you've begun to record? Poems you've penned that need guidance? The start of a novel? Would you like some feedback and direction to move your creativity to a new level?

Join SJWC members and friends for our second online writer's workshop facilitated by writing coach and instructor, Renee K. Nelson. This ongoing writer's workshop will be held via Zoom on Wednesdays, from 6-8/9 pm., beginning Aug 26th. (Class time will vary from 2-3 hours, depending on attendance.) Cost is $10 for SJWC members and $25 for friends of the Club . Register now. Need based scholarships are available. For information, email pr@sjwomansclub.org.

During this series of writing workshops, Renee will dedicate the first half hour to unveiling various (and often illusive) techniques of the craft of writing, such as character development, voice, scene, elements of poetry, and everything in-between. For the remaining 2 hours, you will have the opportunity to share up to five pages of your creative project in a safe, supportive workshop of writers, gain valuable critique and editing skills, as well as guidance for revision. The final half hour will be dedicated to questions, discussion, and optional homework. This workshop is open to all genres and individuals at all levels!

You'll leave the class with the skills to revise, edit, critique and the motivation to keep going only a community of other writers can provide. We look forward to seeing you there!

Renee has a M.F.A. in Creative Writing from San Francisco State University and teaches Creative Writing at the college level in the Bay Area. She has been published in Zyzzyva, Broadsided, Eleven Eleven, Switchback, Ping Pong, Prick of the Spindle, Hamilton Stone Review, Transfer, and others. She teaches literature and creative writing at Evergreen Valley College and is the owner of timetoarrive.com, a coaching service and blog Serious Advice for Serious Creatives.
