Keeping Going

The name of this online class was suggested by my friend Aoibheann Sweeney, inspired by Seamus Heaney's poem.

This is an ongoing fiction writing group that "meets" by email all year, in four-week sessions. You can choose when to drop in, or keep going all year. It's for people working on any longterm fiction project: a novel, story collection, or just personal writing practice. Maybe you're trying to find your voice or discover something to write about. You're welcome too!

Officially, I send out two emails a week to check in on how your writing is going and give brief exercises. In practice, our small-group email conversations range freely throughout the week.

You're encouraged to share your answers and exercises with the group, but if you prefer to answer me privately, or if occasionally you can't answer, those things are also fine. The class exists only to serve the writers who are in it, so you can't do it wrong!

Note that this is not a workshop class, but I do respond to all the exercises you send. If you want to have me read pages in addition, speak with me about it.

Use the contact form on the website to let me know if you'd like to join the class, or if you have questions!
