One Word at a Time is a four-week series of online writing workshops, where writers have the chance to connect with the raw power of their authentic writers’ voices. What distinguishes this workshop from traditional writing workshops is that group members write together during the workshop in response to writing prompts that are designed to support creative risk-taking and the development of craft. All you have to do is show up at the page and write with us!
 
Following each guided writing, group members are invited to read their work aloud. Because the work is new and raw, the group members
limit their responses to what is strong about the writing, what resonates, and what is memorable in each piece. (If desired, workshop members can receive more balanced feedback later, by submitting manuscripts for review after the writer has had a chance to develop and polish the piece.)
 
Each workshop will follow the AWA method developed by Pat Schneider and described in her book “Writing Alone and With Others”
(Oxford University Press, 2003).
 
This workshop is suitable for writers at all experience levels.

The Zoom room will be open 15 minutes before start time (e.g. 10:45 a.m. ) so that you can meet other participants and settle in before the
workshop begins. We will begin the workshop promptly at 11:00 a.m. 
 

If you join late and we are already writing, please respect the writing time of the other writers by muting your sound and starting to write
with us.
