Welcome to the Writer's Toolbox! Single session discussion classes here to help students develop and refine their creative writing skills while expanding the depths of their imaginations.

In this genre studies class, we talk about horror, the genre designed to pray on our greatest fears. A timeless genre that has morphed and changed throughout the years. Everyone has something that keeps them up at night, and horror is the perfect genre to turn those fears into art.

This is an open structured class. We'll start with introductions and discuss our favorite things about horror and creative goals. Depending on what topics come up, will determine what lectures, tips, and discussion points I'll go into. Lessons can range from visual art styles, filmmaking tips, how to create a proper horror "monster", and anything else that may pop up.

The last part of the class will be open for students to share ideas, get more specific advice on the things they may be working on, or just discuss things they still want to see and explore with horror.
