WRITING WORKSHOP
FOUR WRITING PROMPTS: THE BEGINNING OF FOUR NEW STORIES OR POEMS
with Ken Waldman
The more you write, the luckier you get—and each time you start a piece, there’s an opportunity to get luckier than ever. The trick is getting started. Here, you’ll not only begin four new pieces, but will learn strategies to begin many more. The session is open to writers of all levels and experience.
In addition to being a fiddler (with 12 CDs), Ken Waldman is a former college professor with an MFA in Creative Writing from University of Alaska Fairbanks. He has 16 full-length poetry collections, a memoir (about his life as a touring artist), a children’s book, a creative writing manual, and a novel. Over 400 of his stories, poems, and essays have appeared in such journals as Massachusetts, Review, Beloit Poetry Journal, and Poets & Writers.
