Description
Everyone has an idea for a novel, a memoir, or a story collection. But where do we find the time to actually get the words on the page? Between our jobs and families and fatigue, where is this elusive patch of time to write books? “Life pulls us in so many directions that our creative projects can be the first to suffer,” says instructor Joshua Mohr. “This continuation class will help you finally get those narratives written.”

The class will focus on generating pages, pages, and more pages. You’ll meet once a month for a “state of the union” session, but the bulk of the course will take place between meetings. Through weekly email appointments with Josh and your page-partner, you’ll get support to keep the momentum going. There will also be bi-weekly e-submissions, in which students send their next chunk of material out for feedback. “The class covers six months,” Josh says. “So if you stick to the page mandates, you’ll have a huge chunk of material by the end of class."
