Program Description

Event Details

Do you have something to say in 300-1,000 words? This genre requires the writer to pay attention to the customary features of longer fiction -- character, setting, conflict, point of view, language, theme -- but in a rather compressed, and challenging, way. Participants will study examples of flash fiction and then, working from prompts, write a couple. 

Space is limited for this three-part workshop; register soon!

Presenter Paul Lamar is a popular writing instructor in the Capital District with years of experience teaching English at Emma Willard School, The College of Saint Rose, SUNY Cobleskill, Greene Correctional Facility, and Sage, as well as GED at St. Peter’s Addiction Recovery Center.  Since 1996, Lamar has also reviewed theater for the Daily Gazette.
