Writing the Wild Woods
Saturday, 12:00 pm
May 2 | Ages 13-17

Class:

This prose writing class will help budding writers harness the power of “setting” by crafting their very own wooded world. Using poetry and personal experience for inspiration, each writer will use their pens as guides to explore the wild woods.

What You’ll Learn:

This class will analyze two Robert Frost poems as inspiration: “Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening” and “Spring Pools.” Writers will hone skills of imagery and discuss the importance of setting within larger works (like novels).

What You’ll Leave With:

Each writer will exit the class with an original prose description of a wooded setting and a brainstorm for how it might connect to a larger work.

Deadline to register by: April 28
