Beating the Blank Screen: Strategies to get Unstuck

This is a class for writers who want to write—a lot. It's an ideal seminar for beginning a new project; our main goal is to generate a significant volume of material that can be edited and refined later in the process. Drawing on interviews with hundreds of well-known writers, the class will focus on strategies for developing a daily writing practice, rethinking writer’s block, overcoming the inner critic, and unleashing a torrent of words. Writers will come away with new techniques and an action plan, with a window of class time reserved for generative writing.
