Editing & revising short stories with Thomas Morris

Do you feel like there's a gap between what you're capable of achieving as a writer and what you're actually achieving on the page?

Suitable for short story writers of all levels, this workshop with award-winning author Thomas Morris, former editor of The Stinging Fly, will encourage you to listen to your own writing and explore the potential for self-editing and revision.

During the workshop, Thomas will share early drafts of his own short stories, inviting you to reframe your writing – and take your stories to the next level.
