Tutorial in Prose
  Saturday & Sunday starting at 4:40 pm
Prose tutorials offer a constructive critique on a work in progress, manuscript, essay, or story that you're not sharing in your workshop. These one-on-one-sessions last twenty minutes each. You have the option of requesting a tutorial with your workshop leader to get one-on-one feedback on the topic of your choosing, such as crafting a strong book proposal. Either way, be ready to submit your piece a week or so after you register (Up to 15 pages double-spaced with 1" margins and a 12 point font plus a 1 page synopsis). There is a $100 fee for each Tutorial in Prose you add-on. Open to all participants, regardless of what workshop you are taking.


Tutorial in Poetry

Poetry tutorials offer a constructive critique on a poem in progress that you're not sharing in your workshop. These one-on-one-sessions last twenty minutes each. Your tuition in a Poetry Writing workshop (Regular or Advanced) includes a tutorial, and you're welcome to add-on an additional one if you'd like. There is a $75 fee for each Tutorial in Poetry you add-on. Open to all participants, regardless of what workshop you are taking.
