Writing with love is more important than any craft tool because being open and heartfelt on the page is how we connect with others, ourselves, and the world around us.
A good story occurs when an author travels, or even plummets, into the depths of vulnerability and genuinely opens his or her soul in search of truths that otherwise go untold.
Join Grant Faulkner and learn what happens when writers share the most difficult parts of their stories in service of deeper truths. Learn how the contours of a character can change when viewed through the "lens" of an open heart.
Be prepared to write, read and discuss stories and poems, and explore love from all angles. Your perspectives on love—in life and on the page—will likely change in this class and become part of your overall creative aesthetic.
