Hint Fiction: 25-Word Story Workshop: Oct 26th-29th
Investigating the art of the "literary miniature" at the very tip of the iceberg
With a story of just 25 words, the art of 'the hint' is everything. In the first 25-Word Story workshop you’ll be inspired by story models from Hint Fiction: An Anthology of Stories in Twenty Five Words or Fewer (W.W. Norton & Company, 2010) that boasts a series of celebrated writers such as Joyce Carol Oates, Stuart Dybek, among others. It is recommended (but not mandatory) that you buy the book.
In the first-ever 4-day workshop, participants writers will try their hands at this challenging story-telling constraint— focusing on the art of omission, and hinting at (rather than telling) a story using different strategies.
There will be constructive feedback on every story. The workshop will be held in a private Facebook group.
Cost for the workshop is $90 per student.
Dates: October 26th-29th, 2023. Enrol here:
