Craft moves like cutting and framing can be easy to talk about, but hard to execute. In this three-hour seminar hosted over Zoom, you'll read an older, baggier version of a chapter from your instructor's memoir Lightning Flowers, then compare it to the published version. You'll see in concrete ways how cutting changes the flow of a work and how adding intentional language can steer readers into a book's questions. Through discussions and reflective writing, you'll leave class with a grounded sense of how to streamline and guide your own memoir-in-progress.

“There are a lot of workshops out there on craft, but very few that share wisdom on how to revise. Kati provided us with her early drafts so we could see the process of how she developed her polished final product, and guided us in the analysis of how she got there. She was vulnerable, provided practical information, and I emerged energized and ready to revisit my work.”
