Short workshops
Spend a session on one craft question. Leave with pages and a way back into them.
Classes
Craft is not a set of rules. It's a set of pressures.
Point of view decides what a reader can know. Setting decides what a character can do. Voice decides whether either one lands. These choices don't sit in separate chapters of a textbook — they push on each other, constantly, on every page you write.

No classes are currently listed. You can ask about a subject, level, or schedule that would suit you.

Classes here study that pressure directly. You read closely, you write, you revise, and you leave with pages that have been through something.
Voice. Point of view. Character. Plot. Setting. Theme.
Morgan Talty teaches those parts of fiction in relation to one another. One exercise begins with a setting. The next puts two characters in conflict over an object. Then the pieces are brought together and revised to see what each part changes in the others.
Multi-week classes
Read, write, discuss, and revise with the same teacher and group over time.
Reading courses
Take a book or story apart and see how it was made.
Revision courses
Return to a draft and follow the choices one change forces elsewhere.
The teacher
A prepared class with a particular purpose.
The teacher chooses the readings and exercises to fit the subject. A beginning workshop, a course on one book, and a revision class ask different things of their participants. The class description explains the preparation, reading, writing, and feedback involved.
When a class includes your pages
The class page tells you who reads them and what kind of response you will receive. Your work stays yours.
Class details
Each class page gives you the teacher, dates, price, number of seats, reading and writing load, and access information.
