The workshop, titled “Stuck in the Mud!,” will focus on writing action scenes that move the plot forward. Participants will work with the editors of 91Թ’s “Prairie Ink” journal to explore techniques for creating tension and excitement that keep readers eagerly turning the page. The event is open to students, faculty, staff, and community members.
Additional monthly writing workshops will be offered Oct. 15, Nov. 19, Jan. 21, Feb. 18, and March 25. The annual “Prairie Ink” release party will be April 22.
