Workshop: Casting a Spell
I believe that being a writer is the closest you can get in this world to being a wizard. Whether you write fantasy, realistic fiction, or anything in between, your job as a writer is to cast a spell capable of plucking a reader out of their own life and taking them on a journey. In this workshop, we’ll start with the blank page, develop ideas, and build a world for your future stories. Come be a wizard!
