A poetry and novel-writing course for anyone who suspects they were meant to write something that matters.
Every great writer carries a vital delusion: the stubborn belief that the work is worth it, that the muse will come if you leave the door open. This course teaches you how to leave it open. Once a month we meet live online to write, read and pull apart what makes a line or a chapter come alive. Between sessions you keep every lesson we have ever taught in your library, and a few times a year we gather in person.
Once a month
A live online session with Gabriel: writing, reading, and pulling apart what makes words come alive.
The library
Every past lesson, kept for you to return to whenever the muse is late.
In person
A few gatherings a year in the same room, pens out.
Your teacher
