If you like writing workshops that are a mix of weirdness, horror, suspense, and science fiction--you're in the right place! Learn about all the different varieties of fiction called 'speculative fiction'. This large bubble term includes a wide varieties of gothic, horror, all kinds of science fiction and fantasy. It doesn't stop there. There are also genres called alternative reality, near future, and slipstream.  Speculative fiction can even combine the genres above. 

In this workshop, you'll get writing exercises each week to help you explore these different worlds of writing--but you never have to do the exercises if you don't want to. Instead you can go where you want to in the story and what you want to happen to the characters you choose to write about.

On our first day we'll build a world and locations that have all kind of possibilities for story building.  
This workshop pulls together other writers who love writing. By sharing a setting for our stories, you can inspire each other creatively.  

On our second day we'll start creating characters for our world. This is the day you'll receive your first writing prompt.  Although you don't have to use the prompt, most people are willing to share their story with the group at the end of the workshop. People in the workshop will respond with what they like and what they remember about the writing.
