The Art of Brevity 2025 with Robin Sauerwein

Dr. Seuss once said, “So the writer who breeds more words than he needs, is making a chore for the reader who reads.” In this age of twitter, text, and blogs, brevity is in. Brevity is not only fun and challenging but it can also improve your writing. In this 5-week workshop, we will explore the art of flash fiction, prose poetry and micro-memoir using a variety of fun and engaging prompts to get your imagination going. Be amazed at how much you can say with so little words.

Class meets online via Zoom. A link to join the class will be sent within 24 hours of each session.
