THE UNSPOKEN CONFLICT: MAPPING A CHARACTER’S INTERNAL CLIMATE

Students will learn how to transmit a character's desires, needs, and conflicts while the character barely moves. While writers are often taught to 'describe' how a character feels, in this class we learn to permeate their brains—thinking, feeling, and reacting as they do. Through targeted exercises and class interactions, we will tap into our own unconscious, unlocking an expansive emotive repertoire to deploy directly onto the page. Drawing on the instructor's expertise in Creative Writing and training in Systems Psychodynamics, this unique workshop offers a rare psychological framework for accessing your own emotions to map a character's internal climate. This class combines both generative writing and editing practices.

GENERATIVE LAB: WRITING AUTOFICTION

In this intimate, highly focused class, students will learn how to blend autobiography with fiction, structuring their internal world into a compelling narrative where "emotional truths" are prioritized over strict, chronological facts. You will start or make progress on autofictive novel, learning to write from the life of your mind, structuring a story the way memory actually works, without being bound by what "really" happened. Each session balances a structured craft lecture with dedicated deep-work writing time, ending with a group debrief. The four 90-minute weekly classes are strictly capped at 5 students per cohort to ensure every student receives deep, personalized attention. Students of all levels and stages are welcome.
