workshops

"In my workshops, I am not interested in 'fixing' so-called flawed texts; fixing is the work of morticians."

I am interested in helping writers discover what their drafts want to be when they grow up. How do we locate the essay hiding within the messay, the memoir stalled on a ME-more track, the poem trying to sing its way out of the journal's pages?
