Sunday, 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.
Class meets at Literary Arts, 925 SW Washington
Instructor: Erica Trabold

It’s easy to abandon writing until we feel inspired. The truth, of course, is that inspiration can be cultivated and created. This workshop gives writers tools to generate their own prompts, tasks, ideas, and momentum – a well of experiences from which to write.

Erica Trabold is the author of the essay collection Five Plots. Her essays have appeared in South Dakota Review, Essay Daily, Seneca Review, The Rumpus, and elsewhere. Erica was a 2016 artist-in-residence at the Kimmel Harding Nelson Center for the Arts.

CLASS LIAISONS: All classes have one liaison position. Liaisons receive free tuition in exchange for light duties before and after each class meeting.

SCHOLARSHIPS AVAILABLE: Scholarships pay for the entire class tuition. All of our writing classes have at least one scholarship position available, made possible by a generous gift from Dennis Steinman.

To apply for Scholarship or Liaison positions, e-mail Susan Moore, Director of Programs for Writers, at susan@literary-arts.org with your name, contact information, and list three classes in order of preference. Please note that preference is not guaranteed. All scholarships are subject to availability.
