We know we can’t replace the experience of gathering in Sewanee this July, but we’re excited to offer an opportunity for learning and community via a series of online master classes this summer, taught by writers, editors, agents, and theater professionals. Registration will be handled on a first-come, first-served basis, with a cost of $75 for each two hours of a session. Register for classes that explore everything from using theater for social change to how to write a pitch, in addition to small workshops. These events are open to all writers.
