Now Taking Applications for the 2017/18 academic year.  
WHAT:

The Studio specializes in long term literary studies.  We meet each week for three hours and Studio read a selection of books, essays, and short stories, attend literary lectures, listen to podcasts by nationally known writers, and study together.  We workshop on the various complexities of the literary arts including scene, structure, character development, arc, antagonistic forces and progressions.  We have a mini poetry track, with Jenn Foreman, and this is to help break into deeper emotions within our prose.  We also have a guest literary agent talk to us during the year.  Last, there are two community readings for Studio writers, where you present your work to the whole school!

The Studio is a committed group who support each other by setting goals, sharing the details of their full length projects, and by being there during the ups and downs of the creative process.
