​Teaching Philosophy
The workshop can be a useful tool to improving your work and your writing habits. I believe workshopping a story or piece of fiction can help you better understand that piece as well as yourself as a writer. My workshops are structured in a clear and predictable way. First, the author presents a set of guiding questions or areas of focus. Next, a member of the workshop summarizes the piece and another reads an effective selection. The workshop then begins. Half of the time is spent on what is working and the other half is spent on what is not. The author is given a few opportunities to redirect the conversation. Finally, the author shares what they heard. All workshops end with applause.
