All Genre MFA-Style Writers Workshop

About this event

**IN-PERSON EVENT @ New School for the Arts and Academics** 1216 E Apache Blvd, Tempe 85281. Welcome to our Saturday morning event! Our group is run by a licensed MFA writing professor with 10+ years of experience teaching grammar, literature, and writing workshops to adults. The only difference? You don't have to apply, and this one is free! **HOW DOES THIS SYSTEM WORK?** Due to time constraints, we've created a lottery for those who wish to share. If you're new, just sign up, bring nothing, and we'll explain how it works in person. Then you are welcome to enter the lottery to share in future meetings. **Lottery events are designed with the intention to:** **1.** Incentivize diversity of authors (We don't play favorites). **2.** Incentivize accountability (Houston: We have a flake problem...). **3.** Incentivize new people to join while also rewarding dedicated members. **ADDITIONAL FAQ**: **Can I really bring any type of writing?** Yes! We love it all: screenplays, poetry, short stories, non-fiction...anything! **My writing is ____ genre, is that okay?** Yes! Bring your sci-fi, mystery, western, literary, or any other genre. **I'm afraid someone will hate my writing, what should I do?** Our moderator does not tolerate negative, abusive criticism. **I'm not good at giving feedback to others, what should I do?** Our moderator will teach you how to give meaningful feedback. **Is the group on social media?** Oh yeah!
