Short Story Workshop

Contact: Program Director, Lori Roddy

Let’s keep it short. In between writing short fiction and short short fiction, we’ll read favorite published works, workshop each other’s stories, and did we mention… write, write, write?

About the Short Story Workshop

Short story is like going down a mountain in a shopping cart.

Short story workshop zips at light speed from thoughtful critique to improbably wild tangents to explosions of ideas and back again.

Short story workshop blows your mind with dynamite prose.

The Short Story Workshop is in control of the horizontal and vertical. Do not attempt to adjust your set.

SSW wheels around in interesting shapes with arms outstretched.

The Short Story Workshop wraps itself in magnetic tape from cannibalized cassettes and sprints down main street, screaming at the top of its lungs.

Short Story is like the core of a star, the energy of it is deadly.

SSW is like a zebra roaming free across the veldt.

You put stuff in, and something different comes out, and you pay with sugar.

Short Story jumps off airplanes into infinite spirals of light and heat.

Short story workshop loves words like ‘concinnity’ or ‘burgle’, new and old writers, awesome stories and chocolate, not necessarily in that order.

Short story workshop is a raging mosh pit at a Wiggles concert – a lot more hardcore than you’d think.
