The Writers Lab
April 1, 2023 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm CDT
Where Creative Writers Can Experiment With Craft In Joyful Community
Struggling with dialogue? Fascinated by worldbuilding or wondering how your favorite author makes such relatable characters? At the Writers Lab, you can explore these questions and more! During each meeting, a new host will help us target a specific element of creative writing such as word choice, idea generation, or pacing. We’ll do an activity, discuss our approaches, and write quietly for a little bit. There’s no need to prepare anything ahead of time — we’ll explore craft together in the moment from a place of joy and experimentation.
Writers of all genres, ages, and skill levels are welcome! Feel free to attend all sessions or drop in for the topics that interest you. If you have any questions, please email events@dogearedbooksames.com
Join Dog-Eared Books and ISU’s Creative Writing & Environment MFA program for a creative writing experiment 10 am – 12 pm on the first and third Saturdays of the month.
Bring your laptop or a notebook for writing in!
