The Hollihock Writer’s Conference will take place from October 23-25.

Agenda here.

I will teach a craft class on Sunday morning at 10:00 Eastern time. Like church! Description:

Elasticity of the Sentence
This interactive class will examine several perfect sentences from published fiction—and then we’ll have the audacity to recast them (playfully), to figure out what they are by considering what they could have been. The purpose is to slow down and strengthen our revision muscle at the sentence level, to pay attention to the hundreds of microdecisions within each line of prose.
