Explore the many faces of love in this 7-session guided workshop, designed for writers eager to craft essays and stories that capture intimacy, humor, heartbreak, and everything in between. We’ll focus on personal essays in the style of the New York Times’ Modern Love and Tiny Love Stories, while also experimenting with prompts, forms, and structures that illuminate the theme of love in all its complexity.

Each week, you’ll:

  • Develop your voice and storytelling craft

  • Experiment with narrative structure, point of view, and pacing

  • Work on personal essays and micro-stories for potential submission

  • Receive feedback in a supportive group environment

Plus: Each participant receives one private noting session to refine their piece before submitting to the New York Times.

By the end of the workshop, you’ll have polished essays, bite-sized stories, and new strategies for writing about love that are authentic, compelling, and ready to share with readers.
