Yale Writer’s Workshop

Early this year, I applied to the Yale Summer Session for Writers called the Yale Writer’s Workshop on a whim. I figured I’d decide how to manage to go there *if* I got in. Late March, I received word that I was accepted. I agonized over it for a week before caving and registering for the ten-day residential workshop despite the steep cost.

So, I will be in New Haven this June. I am hoping that this will help hone my craft and provide me with the much-needed impetus to get writing. The eventual goal is a memoir but for starters, I will be aspiring to craft better long-form essays and get published in magazines.

Wish me luck people!
