The Foundations Classes: Live

Write Your Story: Creative Writing Classes for Adults

Each year, Blackbird Studio offers two Foundations creative writing classes for adults: Bones of Storytelling & Scene vs. Exposition in the fall and Bones only in the spring. (Sample Bones by clicking here now).

This is your chance to work with the Blackbird staff, get to know our culture, and have a great time learning about story and thinking about what it is you’re writing or what you want to write.

Bones covers concept, theme, plot, character development, structure, and antagonistic forces from the perspective of your project. Leaving, you will have a drafting plan for a finished, marketable book.

Scene vs. Exposition provides the basic of composition and we help you weigh the pros and cons of using scene and it’s counterpart, exposition. We also get to learn more about you, via your writing, and start giving you pin-point advice to take your work from good to great.
