Why aren't you writing? There are as many reasons as there are would-be writers. If you need a creative nudge, this course is for you. Using easy-to-learn improv games and short writing sprints we'll show you how to:

• Start at the beginning (No, it's not obvious)
• Give your characters character
• Ditch research in favour of imagination (at least on the first draft)
• Give your dialogue life by focusing on emotion and intent
• Find out "What's next?" in your story
• Trust in tangents
• Generate ideas, plots, and scenarios fast
• Silence your Inner Critic
• Bust through writer's block.

Limited to 15 participants to ensure everyone gets time to participate.
