Sci-Fi Flashes: Microfiction of the Speculative Kind

A prompt-based writing workshop to get those creative juices flowing! Science fiction and speculative stories open the door to let your imagination run wild.

In this genre, the sky is not the limit.

Come ready to write some short flash fiction pieces and think about where speculative fiction can take you—and where you can take it.

This workshop will NOT be recorded.

Pay-What-You-Can tickets are available.
