Because the world is utterly depressing rn, I'm gonna host another one of these free masterclasses, because what can we do but think and learn and write and organise. I'll be drilling into the fineries of short story structure (vs novels) and how we can make things of transformative beauty in tiny spaces. Free, online, 1hr, Thur 20 November. Pls RT! Sign up here: eventbrite.com/e/10435640571…

Short fiction thrives on contradictions—brief yet expansive, grounded yet wild.
