Imagination/2 is an intensive workshop series for beginning or 
just-bogged-down writers who want direction, connection, and a jumpstart. 
Covering fiction, poetry, essay, and memoir, it will gear up at eight 
greater Cleveland locations over five Saturdays during May and June. From 
9:30 am to 12:30 pm on May 1, 8, 15, and 22, experienced writers will guide 
participants through the mysteries of genre and craft and workshop technique.
One of the groups is a teen workshop for high-school aged writers. A ninth 
location, on the CSU campus, will provide aspiring or just curious 
playwrights a four-week workshop of their own. On June 12, all nine groups 
will gather at Mather Mansion on the Cleveland State campus to celebrate 
with good food, much writer-talk, student readings, and a featured reader, 
Cleveland's own Delores Phillips, alumna of CSU, and author of the novel 
The Darkest Child.
Workshop locations are: Mac's Backs Books, Joseph Beth Booksellers, the 
Parma Ridge and Brecksville Branches of the Cuyahoga County Public Library, 
the Rocky River (Metroparks) Nature Center, Kirtland Community of Christ, 
Cleveland State's new West Center campus, plus a playwriting workshop in 
Cleveland State's Theater Arts Building, and a teen writers session at the 
Poets' & Writers' League of Greater Cleveland Literary Center.
Workshop size is limited. To register, call Jane Dugan at (216) 687-2532 or 
email Imagination2 at csuohio.edu. Please indicate which location you would 
like to attend. Tuition of $69.95 will cover
all 5 sessions (some grant assistance is available).
Sponsored by the Cleveland State University Creative Writing Program with 
financial support from the Ohio Arts Council.

Playwriting workshops will be led by Chris Johnston and Sarah Morton.
