Lizzie Simon is a TNS parent and since her own memoir, Detour, was published, she has led students through a series of classes to inspire creativity, authenticity and courage and to get them writing for a small chunk of time every day.

During this class for ADULTS, we pay attention to things like tension, voice, plotting, metaphor and structure. We look closely together at masterful personal essays and excerpts from excellent memoirs to see how they achieved their impact. And we have writers visit our zoom sessions to discuss questions students have. For more info check out lizziesimon.info.

Class will take place on Zoom on seven summer Friday afternoons, from August 4 to September 15.

Valid only through Summer 2023
