Communicating with Spirits: Writing Ghost Stories
We all have ghosts; memories, moments, and sometimes literal spirits that haunt us. How do we access these shadows and explore them? How do we communicate with the things that scare us? How do we write new stories for the spooky season canon? This fall, join writer and bookstore owner Christina Rosso-Schneider for a two-hour writing workshop all about ghosts. We'll look at selections of stories about specters and spirits before starting to write our own ghost stories! This workshop is open to fiction, poetry, and nonfiction writers. All experiences and perspectives welcome.
