CCC Community Education & Professional Development

In this class, students will learn about the importance of language, descriptive narration, and story structure. Students will examine and experiment with tenses, points of view, and sometimes write outside of their comfort zones. This course is for those who want to write every week and go over what they write with a group. Writers who are working on a memoir, a novel, or non-fiction are welcome. The ultimate goal of this class is to inspire, motivate, and support one another!
