May Class Schedule

There's a lot going on in May. This will be my last month teaching in Croton before I head off to Yale for most of June. 

In July and August, I'll try to get in as many classes as I can. Dates TK. Let me know if you're interested. I'll be back to a full schedule again in September.


Saturday May 2: Get Unblocked at the Hudson Valley Writers' Center in Sleepy Hollow. Here's my essay about it on the HVWC blog.

At the Ajna Center in Croton:

Get Comfortable

This easy, low-pressure group is for beginners, those returning to writing after a break, and those who are feeling stuck. Get lots of encouragement and support while we get your pen moving with short, fun in-class writing assignments and homework. You'll be amazed at how much you write—and how good it is.   

     Thursdays May 7, 14, 21, and 28, 7 to 8:30 p.m.

     $175 for the month; $50 for one class 

Get Uncomfortable

Good writing often comes from pushing against the boundaries of our comfortable worlds. From bravely encountering questions without answers, stories without happy endings, mysteries larger than words. Discomfort doesn't equal darkness. Outside the bubble lies sadness, yes, but deep joy, too. It's where we encounter the full range of human experience. This class will combine in-class work with opportunities to workshop your prose. 

     Tuesdays May 5 to June 2, 9:45 to 11:45 a.m.

     $200 for all five classes; $50 for one class

Evening Writing Group

 This 3-week class is for people at all levels who need an evening meeting time. Sign up for one or for all three.

     Mondays May 4, 11, and 18, 7 to 8:30 p.m.
     $140 for all  three classes; $50 for one class


If you need alternate times, or a different sort of class, I can work with your needs and schedule! Use the CONTACT ME form on the right to get in touch. I only need three people to start a class. Private editing and coaching is also available.
