It can be hard to quantify the magic of Craft Studio. How’s this?

1) Start with an intimate cohort of writers, most of them working on books or short-form, many of them publishing, some of them newer to the practice.

2) Build on a shared love of reading, of words, sentences, images, worlds, stories, and characters.

3) Co-create the deepest, most resonant lessons in craft as you generate your best work on the page in response to prompts drawn from a wide-range of mostly-contemporary fiction and narrative nonfiction.

4) Power your own writing projects forward in class while leveling up your prose from the strength of your technique to the insistency, humor, and honesty of the truths you pull from the page.

5) Find community.

6) Find your voice.

7) Finish your work.

Wednesday online 2 - 4 PM Meets with Elizabeth every other week for ten pivotal lessons, with optional self-directed meetings on the alternate weeks for which Elizabeth provides curriculum that builds on the previous lesson.

Comments from Craft Studio Students:

"You are a brilliant teacher, bordering on a certain special kind of genius, where you can take a raw clay of a thinker like me and help make me into a writer and finish one book and also three more, hopefully."

"I would often come to class feeling like I wasn't in the mood, or unsure if I would be able to think of anything to write, but it was always so great! I'm still not sure I understand how or why, but I would always come away feeling reinvigorated in my writing."

"Elizabeth - you are a gifted instructor. Your classes are magic for me!"

"I benefited from each lesson. I learned, or was reminded of, a different aspect of craft each time. I also wrote each time, which was helpful, especially between projects. The positive feedback was extremely gratifying in times when I was doubting my writing abilities. It was a really supportive, talented group. I loved the "rules": no apologies, just write, and give specific honest praise. I also loved Elizabeth's insightful feedback on each piece of writing."

"I love your classes, Elizabeth. They are such a gift. Thank you."
