MANUSCRIPT WORKSHOP B: Tuesdays, 7-9 PM, November 23 and 30, December  
7 and 14

MANUSCRIPT WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION: Do you have a manuscript of fiction  
or nonfiction, a stage play or screenplay? Do you feel something is  
lacking in it, but you’re not sure what? Or maybe you just want to  
hear what others have to say about your work, while at the same time  
learning about the art of critiquing others’ work, which helps you  
understand your own.

It helps to get “fresh eyes” on your manuscript and to discuss what  
works for your colleagues, what doesn’t, and maybe even get new ideas  
for your story. At our Tuesday evening manuscript workshops, you can  
get that kind of input, help and support. Students are asked to submit  
up to 15 pages of a fiction or nonfiction manuscript – a short story,  
novel or memoir excerpt, screenplay or stage play. If it’s time for  
you to take that next step with your work, this workshop is for you.

During the course of the Workshop, we will also talk about the art and  
craft of writing: character development, plot, setting, dialogue and  
“thinking like a writer.”

And we're offering something new that’s unique to our Workshop: some  
students only have an idea for a story, but not much down on paper  
yet. Students, including 2-person writing teams at the Chagrin Valley  
Writers’ Workshop, have successfully worked out their stories through  
discussion, outlines and brainstorming sessions, and gone on to write  
screenplays and books.

Whether you have a finished manuscript, a story-in-progress, or simply  
an idea for it, our Workshop could be what you need to jump-start your  
writing.
