Join us to brainstorm, have fun and learn how to craft a short story. This supportive class teaches you how to generate characters (base them on your mother), create a setting (pick a planet) and outline a story arc (my mother the alien finally returns to Mars). Stories about parental units not required.
Write a sci-fi story about your frenemy Marleen but slyly change her name to Larleen. Write a poignant tale of finding true love with a 7-11 gas pump and a racoon. Rewrite The Outsiders and change all the characters to vacuum cleaners or colanders or talking seat belts.
The best thing about fiction is you design the world, and you make the rules. Class includes writing time and friendly no-pressure feedback.
