Join Cameron Mitchell this spring to create meaningful work that your audience can peel back layer by layer.
In this workshop series, participants will learn to take surface level ideas and add more depth using various advanced writing techniques including extended metaphors, wordplay, double/triple entendres (among others), and how to knead these techniques into their writing.
