SUMMARY:WEBINAR | Exploring the Happy Accident: Crafting Draft Discoveries into Exquisite Nonfiction
DESCRIPTION:Learn to cultivate a writing process that provides fertile ground for unexpected discoveries and how to make the most of moments when you’re surprised by your own writing.\n\n\n\nFor creative nonfiction\, nonfiction\, and all writers eager to find more spontaneity in their processIncluded in the Season Pass \n\n\n\nSometimes the exact thing your writing needs is the thing you least expect: the subject you weren’t meaning to consider\, the turn of phrase you didn’t know you had in you\, or the connections you never realized you could make. These “Lucky Drafts” are happy accidents\, turning serendipity\, coincidence\, and unwitting juxtaposition into exquisite nonfiction. And often\, these drafts surprise us with their flow and power\, transcending the labor of writing to reach our strongest authorial voice.  \n\n\n\nI never meant to be an essayist. The first long-form piece of creative nonfiction I ever wrote was meant to be an 800-word contribution to a roundtable on race and poetry. It turned into a 9000-word essay that went explosively viral upon publication. Nearly every essay I’ve published since has similarly arrived while I was writing something else entirely. This is true of many of my poems\, too.  \n\n\n\nOther writers across genres—poets\, novelists\, and essayists—have shared with me their own adventures in happy accidents\, to borrow a phrase from legendary painter and PBS fixture Bob Ross\, and how inadvertent nonfiction can become the best essays we never meant to write. \n\n\n\nIn this webinar\, we’ll consider why and how the inadvertent can so often be so much more interesting and satisfying than the thing we were meaning to write. We’ll discuss strategies for cultivating and embracing happy accidents and learn to create the circumstances (and welcome the surprises!) to generate exciting new work that surpasses our own expectations for our writing. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn this webinar\, you will:\n\n\n\n\nDISCOVER examples of accidental turns in essay writing\n\n\n\nEXPLORE how and why the unintentional can result in potent and memorable writing\n\n\n\nLEARN how to embrace the unexpected and let it lead us to fresh and exciting new essays\n\n\n\nRELEASE over-control of your writing to allow yourself to surprise yourself\n\n\n\n\nThis webinar is ideal for writers who…\n\n\n\n\nfeel stuck or blocked\n\n\n\nare writing a ton but publishing less than they hope to\n\n\n\nseek to differentiate their work from everyone else’s in an oversaturated media moment\n\n\n\nare waiting for their writing to “flow” instead of pushing\n\n\n\n\nClosed captioning is available. ✔All registrants receive the recording. ✔ \n\n\n\nABOUT YOUR PRESENTER\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA personable and lively teacher\, Jaswinder Bolina’s superpower is translating complicated ideas into plain English. His conversational\, humorous sessions are transformative for students’ work. Noted for being analytical yet highly approachable\, Jaswinder’s most recent book English as a Second Language and Other Poems (2023) was awarded the 2025 Kingsley Tufts Poetry Award from Claremont Graduate University. He is author of three previous poetry collections\, The 44th of July (2019)\, Phantom Camera (2013)\, and Carrier Wave (2007)\, and of the essay collection Of Color (2020).REFUNDS (less a $10 processing fee) ARE AVAILABLE before the replay is sent out.

SUMMARY:WEBINAR | Time Traveler: How to Manipulate Time on the Page
DESCRIPTION:Beyond the chronology of a story\, we can speed up and slow down time within scenes\, immersing the reader more fully in the moment. Explore four kinds of time in this write-along webinar. \n\n\n\nFor creative nonfiction\, nonfiction\, and fictionIncluded in the Season Pass \n\n\n\nTime on the page creates tension\, amplifies emotion\, and controls the pace of the story. This can be the time it takes characters or the narrator to move across a room\, a montage of the past or flashbacks within the present scene\, and the time created by different verb tenses and points of view.  \n\n\n\nWriters most often work with four types of time:  \n\n\n\n\nLinear/logical time that sustains plot and point of view\n\n\n\nThe Continuous Present\, which brings immediacy to the page and can support multiple or collective points of view\n\n\n\nLong Time\, with which we can depict extraordinary amounts of time passing in a flash piece and show how the deep past informs the present and the future\n\n\n\nMeticulous Time\, when the time within the story is actually shorter than the amount of time it takes to read it. By slowing time and examining smaller details and moments\, greater emotion is created on the page or the reader’s focus is controlled. \n\n\n\n\nWith examples and instructions\, explore the fascinating craft of creating\, expanding\, and contracting time by rewriting a single scene in each of the four times. You’ll finish our action-packed hour with a deeper understanding of how time elapses within scenes and flash pieces and a stronger understanding of when and why to use each type of time.  \n\n\n\nThis webinar will also help you find a well of creativity and freedom to draw from in connection to how you replicate time on the page. \n\n\n\nCome ready to write! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn this webinar\, you will:\n\n\n\n\nLEARN about four different types of time to use in creative writing\n\n\n\nHEAR examples that illuminate the advantages of using different time elements\n\n\n\nEXPLORE how time is its own craft element\, helping writers guide their readers through plot\n\n\n\nWRITE in four kinds of time to truly understand this craft technique\n\n\n\nKNOW how\, when\, and why to expand and contract time in your work\n\n\n\n\nThis webinar is ideal for …\n\n\n\n\nintermediate and advanced fiction and nonfiction writers who are obsessed with time—how it moves\, bends\, and plays tricks on the page\n\n\n\nwriters looking to explore fresh aspects of craft and push past familiar techniques\n\n\n\nwriters whose scenes feel flat or rushed and want to learn how to stretch a moment until it earns its weight\n\n\n\nwriters struggling with pacing—either everything moves too fast\, or nothing moves at all\n\n\n\nwriters who want their prose to mirror the way memory\, boredom\, or deep focus actually feel\, instead of defaulting to straightforward chronology\n\n\n\nwriters ready to experiment with structure and are looking for a framework to do it with intention\, not just instinct\n\n\n\n\nClosed captioning is available. ✔All registrants receive the recording. ✔ \n\n\n\nABOUT YOUR PRESENTER\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAn informal-but-informed teacher focused on actionable results\, Sherrie Flick is the author of six books\, including the short story collection I Have Not Considered Consequences (Autumn House Press\, 2025). She is co-editor for the Norton anthology Flash Fiction America and senior editor at SmokeLong Quarterly.

SUMMARY:WEBINAR | Why Does Your Memoir Matter? Finding the Heart of Your Story to Connect with Readers
DESCRIPTION:Your memoir is not what happened to you—it’s why it mattered. Memoirs that sell connect a single focus from your story with readers. \n\n\n\nFor memoiristsIncluded in the Season Pass \n\n\n\nOne of the most challenging things for memoirists to do is find the singular story out of a lifetime of stories they’re telling in their memoir. A memoir is a single lens on an aspect of a life—not an entire biography\, and memoirists must learn to distill their work. The events they choose to dramatize must be those most relevant to the internal growth trajectory of the narrator. In other words\, they must learn to ask “who cares?” ruthlessly about key events in their lives. Not a task for the faint of heart!  \n\n\n\nIn this interactive webinar\, we’ll explore powerful questions to help you find the heart of your memoir. If you aren’t sure yet what your story is\, these questions can help you understand what’s missing! We will also look at the concept of a misbelief and learn how tracking a character’s misbelief leads us to the memoir’s theme and point. Whether you’re just starting your memoir\, already have several drafts\, are struggling with a proposal or are getting rejections for “I didn’t connect” or “I don’t know who the audience is\,” these exercises will strengthen your understanding of your work. \n\n\n\nPlease bring writing materials and be prepared to write! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn this webinar\, you will:\n\n\n\n\nEXPLORE examples of memoir “points”\n\n\n\nUNDERSTAND the difference between plot and story (what and why)\n\n\n\nLEARN how point and theme are connected\n\n\n\nIDENTIFY the scene that their memoir requires in order to exist\n\n\n\nPRACTICE finding the heart of their memoir\n\n\n\n\nThis webinar is ideal for intermediate and advanced memorists…\n\n\n\n\nwho are struggling to complete a memoir draft\n\n\n\nwho can’t see the forest for the trees in their story\n\n\n\nseeking clarity on their memoir’s focus\n\n\n\nwho are writing book proposals and stuck on the overview or the audience\n\n\n\ncurious about how their narrative connects with a larger audience\n\n\n\n\nClosed captioning is available. ✔All registrants receive the recording. ✔ \n\n\n\nABOUT YOUR PRESENTER\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFunny\, kind\, and direct\, Laraine Herring is a popular CRAFT TALKS presenter and one of our strongest voices on deeply personal writing that powerfully connects with readers. \n\n\n\nLaraine’s memoir\, A Constellation of Ghosts: A Speculative Memoir with Ravens\, was released in 2021 from Regal House. She’s the editor of the anthology Becoming Real: Women Reclaim the Power of the Imagined through Speculative Nonfiction (Pact Press\, 2024) and a trilogy of writing books from Shambhala\, including Writing Begins with the Breath: Embodying Your Authentic Voice. A retired professor of creative writing and psychology\, Lariane has worked with writers for thirty years.  \n\n\n\nShe’s also an illustrator and a grief counselor and creator of The Grief Forest: a book about what we don’t talk about.

SUMMARY:WEBINAR | Fix It\, Make It Better: The Fine Art of Revising Memoir
DESCRIPTION:Revision\, some say\, is the hardest part of writing\, but this stage can also be the most rewarding and pleasurable.\n\n\n\nFor Memoir and Nonfiction ProseIncluded in the Season Pass \n\n\n\nCapturing our memories—vividly\, thoroughly\, and carried along by palpable emotion—takes skill and concerted effort. But the task of writing compelling memoir doesn’t end there. Once we’ve given the story our best shot\, once we’ve powered our way through an early draft or two\, how do we take what we’ve created and use the powerful tools of revision to make the memoir shine? \n\n\n\nContrary to common wisdom\, this is one task where it’s often not productive to start at the beginning. A story has multiple moving parts—sentences\, paragraphs\, chapters\, the beginning\, and the end. Successful revision happens when we learn to step back from our writing\, making deliberate choices about when to intervene\, where to intervene\, and what changes will work best. \n\n\n\nThe key to effective revision—whether you’re writing a memoir or a six-page personal essay—is understanding that revision can take multiple approaches. Learn how to weigh those choices with intention\, and walk away with tools you can apply to any project\, in any genre. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn this webinar\, you will:\n\n\n\n\nLEARN how to enjoy revision\, looking forward to it with anticipation\n\n\n\nDISCERN which revision approach works best at what stage of the writing\n\n\n\nOVERTURN that nagging feeling that you have been “revising forever”\n\n\n\nFIND the best ways to establish what should be included in the memoir and what should be left out\n\n\n\n\nThis webinar is ideal for writers at any level\, at any stage who…\n\n\n\n\nare uncertain how to effectively improve early drafts\n\n\n\nworry they spend too much time polishing and re-polishing sentences\n\n\n\nfind revision unpleasant or worrisome\n\n\n\n\nClosed captioning is available. ✔All registrants receive the recording. ✔ \n\n\n\nABOUT YOUR PRESENTER\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOne of our most popular and beloved presenters\, DINTY W. MOORE is author of the memoirs Between Panic & Desire and To Hell With It and the writing guides Crafting the Personal Essay and The Mindful Writer\, among other books. His insightful teaching\, calm sensibility\, and wicked sense of humor make his classes a delight as well as bringing useful techniques for every writer.

SUMMARY:WEBINAR | Sentencing: Power\, Precision\, and Purpose in Every Line
DESCRIPTION:Break out of your habitual syntax\, and harness the energy in the smallest\, most important narrative unit.\n\n\n\nFor Memoir and Nonfiction ProseIncluded in the Season Pass \n\n\n\nWriting lives or dies at the sentence level. So what makes a sentence work? Learn the nuances of sentence craft and make sure every line carries its weight. \n\n\n\nThe sentence is the essential building block of any piece of writing—and it must do multiple kinds of work at once: convey meaning\, generate emotion\, and sustain momentum. Yet many writers underestimate how much power resides at this level and how deliberately sentences must be shaped to carry that weight. This isn’t about grammar or a particular “literary voice\,” but about understanding the mechanics of sentence craft to carry out your true\, distinct voice while delivering a powerful story. \n\n\n\nIn this webinar\, we take a focused look at the art of the sentence. You will learn to shape sentences that create authority\, distinctiveness\, and voice; build fresh new patterns that sustain reader interest from line to line; and diagnose the hidden strengths and weaknesses in your own sentence-level habits. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn this webinar\, you will:\n\n\n\n\nIDENTIFY the sentence habits that limit a manuscript’s effectiveness \n\n\n\nAPPLY three key sentence techniques—compression\, expansion\, and rhythm control—to create more compelling prose\n\n\n\nBUILD special sentence-level craft skills\, including strategic withholding\, revelation\, and syntactic variation\n\n\n\nLEARN how to revise ordinary sentences into memorable\, voice-driven lines that carry greater emotional and narrative impact AND\n\n\n\nDESIGN purposeful sequences of sentences that generate momentum\, surprise\, and flow on the page\n\n\n\n\nThis webinar is ideal for beginning writers or seasoned pros in need of a tune-up.\n\n\n\nClosed captioning is available. ✔All registrants receive the recording. ✔ \n\n\n\nABOUT YOUR PRESENTER\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDr. Heather Sellers has been teaching for over thirty years\, and she doesn’t teach like anyone else. Her classes are innovative and groundbreaking\, and students describe them as fun\, lively\, and warm—the kind of workshop where you laugh out loud and walk away having learned an enormous amount.  \n\n\n\nShe is the author of You Don’t Look Like Anyone I Know\, a popular memoir about family and face blindness.
