"The truth will set you free, but first it will piss you off!”

- Gloria Steinem

It’s a funny thing about writing: If you bend, omit, or avoid the truth, your reader/viewer
is likely to know. And more importantly, you’ll know. Yet telling the truth can feel terrifying

in memoir, biography, nonfiction, fiction—all of which rest on your willingness to be vulnerable.

This class is all about being vulnerable: Exposing the truth, writing the truth, unleashing the truth, whether it is your story or someone else’s story, a story that needs to be told.

 

Within this week-long course, you’ll experience the magic of five live classes with five different faculty. But this isn’t just writing instruction. This is a discussion about life, about what makes us tick, about what matters, about why and how you can bring the truths that live within you onto the page so they can live outside your body and help inspire and

inform the world.

Through a deep sharing of ideas and a chance for you to practice your writing in the
moment, you’ll come away not just with craft and technique, but with a new appreciation

for yourself as a person with universal truths to share.

The course includes writing prompts, discussion, and Q&A, making each class a

true conversation.
