Event Descriptions

Jumpstart Your Writing

Pre-registration required. Both sessions are full.

Join one of Grub Street Writers’ award-winning instructors for an hour of innovative and inspiring prompts that will have aspiring writers brainstorming ideas for new stories and writing new scenes. The focus will be on creating memorable characters and settings, inventing plots and improving dialogue. This session is designed for people interested in writing fiction and non-fiction, but poets will also benefit. The morning session is led by Grace Talusan, who teaches writing at Tufts University and contributes regularly to The Rumpus, an online culture magazine. The afternoon session is led by Stace Budzko, writer-in-residence at the Institute of Contemporary Art, Boston. Free pre-registration is required to participate in this event.
