Most nonfiction “stories” are really not.  They are articles, or reports, or informational texts.  Or they are vague and generic abstractions.  Yet people’s lives are lived in specific moments and in story form – narratives set in time and place that involve character, complication, emotion and meaning.  When journalism — the telling of true stories — intersects with those universals, magic can happen. In this workshop, we’ll peel back the curtain and show how to make that magic happen — or, more accurately, we’ll provide the tools that can make your writing (whether nonfiction or fiction) seem magical.
