Story Starters with Leah Newsom
In this ‘creative calisthenics’ course we will explore a variety of ways to start the writing process through prompts, exercises and avenues of exploration and play unique to your instructor. We will work through the hurdles of starting a story and develop methods to make our own creatively generating exercises. Regardless of the genre you're writing in, this course will provide tools for getting the figurative (or literal) ink on the page.
