Writing, Revising, and Publishing Short Fiction with David Byron Queen (via Zoom)


We are happy to offer another session of this class series with David Byron Queen. The class will begin on Wednesday May 4 and will end on Wednesday June 8th.

In this six-week short fiction workshop, each week will focus on a different stage of the “writing to submission” process—from writing and revising in early weeks, to polishing, writing cover letters, and submitting work in later weeks. As we go along, we will read and discuss all kinds of work being published in literary journals today (small and large, online and print, traditional, experimental, and everything in between). Students will come away with a stronger idea of their own work, and the practical tools to get it out into the world.

This class will be taught via Zoom. The Zoom link will be sent at the time of registration and again the morning of class. Please check spam filters and write to admin@writerscenter.org with questions.

Registration for this 6week class is $370 at:
