You've got a story to tell and ideas to share--but should you write an essay collection or a memoir? In this 6-hour intensive hosted by Seattle’s Hugo House, writers will identify potential "centers of gravity" in their material, consider the arc of narrator change, reckon with repetition, discuss unifying features, pinpoint their work's central questions, and confront whether shame, fear, or an aversion to the work of dismantling existing essays could be shaping their books. Participants will complete a pre-class writing project inventory.
