    About this Workshop

    Campus: Regis College | Rising Grades: 6,7

    Do you spend afternoons pouring words into your laptop or notebook? Do you find yourself daydreaming about the worlds and characters you’d like to create? Are you already working on a novel and looking for a community that will help workshop your ideas? At the EXPLO Writer’s Loft, we welcome authors of any style—short stories, poetry, fiction, you name it—and hope that you will join us to share and sharpen your ideas. We’ll explore key writing techniques from different genres and creative wordplay exercises that you can apply to grow your work. Connect and receive feedback from other passionate writers in the supportive, creative community of the Loft.
