“Sudden Fiction”


“Sudden Fiction” Writing Workshop

You are a writer! Come to the “Sudden Fiction” writing workshop offered free at the Camden Public Library, 5:30 to 7:30 pm on six Tuesdays beginning October 9. The workshop will be led by writing coach Lee Heffner. Call the library at 236-3440 to register, class size is limited.

Heffner says, “We are not encouraged to listen to our creative voice. Yet most people yearn to paint, sing, dance, play an instrument, or tell stories. Aspiring writers can be taught grammar, plot, character, and dialogue structure, but the words must come from within. You’re a writer! Throw writer’s block out the window. Don’t wait for divine intervention, break the cycle!”

Lee Heffner is a writer’s coach, a published author, and MFA candidate in Creative Writing. “Experience level is irrelevant for this class,” she says. “The words are there! And when you have a safety net you will hear them. Turn someday into now. Pieces from this class have become short stories and several participants have launched novels. You will find your voice and prove to yourself that you can write without an over-active imagination or a lightning bolt of inspiration.”
