ABOUT THE WORKSHOP
Come join us for a MFA-style writing workshop intensive in the beautiful high desert near the Joshua Tree National Park. The workshop will take place over the weekend of JUNE 3–4 (Saturday & Sunday). In addition to the 2-day workshop where you will get to share an excerpt of your writing and get feedback from your instructor and the group, the workshop will also feature a special guest chef and cooking demo/dinner, paired with a mixology lesson & cocktail hour on Saturday evening.
For the workshop, we will meet at my “boho” desert casita in Yucca Valley (right on the edge of Joshua Tree … the park entrance is 10 minutes away).
