Migration: Short Memoir
Fledgling Writing Workshops @ 417 Prospect Pl, Brooklyn, NY
Migration workshops combine traditional manuscript critique with Fledgling’s signature generative approach, meaning plenty of in class writing time and feedback. With a focus on short memoir, we’ll spend the first three sessions writing to prompts and learning how to choose what belongs in a piece about one’s self, what a three act structure is and how to make it work for any length piece, and what mixing “big and little voice” means, plus...

The Borrowers Course
Writing what we know, remember, or have lived before can be harder than it sounds. Using the technique of ekphrasis (or detailing other works of art in writing) as an entry point to memory, participants in this course will generate work informed by the artistic world around them and within them. Though ekphrasis generally relates to visual art*, writers in this course will turn to a mix of media of all kinds to access past experiences, explore the...

The Poetics Course
As a balance to years of being taught to recognize and use our rhetorical voices (the one that argues, writes term papers, and drafts emails), this course offers a chance to connect to our poetic voice. What is it for you specifically that turns your use of language into art? Everyone has a unique creative voice, and this shorter, focused course strives to help you find or recover yours. Through two highly generative hours of weekly class time,...

The Nestling Course
Fledgling Writing Workshops @ Online Class , Online, NY
What began as the online version of The Fledgling Course, the Nestling Course has become slightly more goal-oriented. While The Fledgling Course is more intent on simply offering time for free expression and space to be creative, this at home series culminates with all participants having completed the draft of some original piece of creative writing—whether it be a chapter, short story, essay, poem, or scene. Through building off of our...

Trans Abundance
Fledgling Writing Workshops @ Online Class , Online, NY

Each participant taking part in this half generative, half seminar-style course will have the opportunity to submit 10-20 (double-spaced) pages of prose (from a story, novel, or essays) and receive an hour of feedback from the...
