Memoir Writing Workshop

Rangeley Inn


10/20 - 10/22/2024

THE ART OF THE TINY TRUTH: A Flash Nonfiction Workshop. Flash nonfiction essays are extremely short - often 750 words or fewer - true stories told concisely and movingly. This dynamic micro-essay form can lead to inspiring results whether being used for reflective, memoir-like pieces or more urgent, in-the-moment pieces. Flash nonfiction essays can tackle the absurd and the profound, and are an invaluable method for nonfiction writers looking for a “side door” into stories that are too daunting to enter from the front. FMI click HERE
