Flash Essay: The Macro in Micro, with Olga Katsovskiy

Flash creative nonfiction is traditionally defined as true stories of 1,000 words or less; however, word count is the least interesting thing about this form. Compelling flash essays capture dramatic moments in our lives, leaving lasting impressions like a shooting star or meteor strike. Class will include guided writing prompts, craft tips and time for feedback and questions. This session is ideal for those new to flash essays, or experienced nonfiction writers looking to refine their technique. We will examine a variety of flash narrative and hermit crab essays and launch into our own.

This workshop will be held online.

Saturday, September 6, 9:30 a.m. - 12:30 p.m. EST
