Writing Retreat Workshop: Explorations in Flash Forms

Flash fiction, mini-memoir, prose poems, short-shorts, palm-of-the-hand stories: These are a few of the wide variety of brief prose forms we will read, study, and attempt in this generative, multi-genre course. We will dig into the creative possibilities of these structures by exploring the narrative potential of our observations, memories, and imaginations. The emphasis will be on making new work, but this workshop can also help you better realize work-in-progress. Come with an open mind and a willingness to play on the page.
