INDY'S WEEKLY ALTERNATIVE NEWSPAPER HIGHLIGHTING ARTS, ENTERTAINMENT AND SOCIAL JUSTICE

Annual Fiction Writing Workshop

by Editors
Dan Barden will offer his fiction workshop again this year.

Butler University’s creative writing professor Dan Barden will present the seventh annual Fiction Writing Workshop Feb. 21-May 16.

In past years, freelance writers, attorneys, doctors, retirees, homemakers and even some high school students have taken the class.

Barden says his overall goal is to pull together a group of writers who are enthusiastic and committed, although not necessarily accomplished, and have them encourage each other to write better.

This popular workshop runs for 12 weeks, Wednesdays from 7:15-9:45 p.m. in Jordan Hall Room 303. Enrollment costs $200 and is limited to 15 people.

To apply, send a letter of introduction and a writing sample of no more than 20 pages to dbarden@butler.edu or mail to Dan Barden, Butler University Department of English, 4600 Sunset Ave., Indianapolis, IN 46208-3485.

Deadline for applications is Jan. 31, 2007. For more information, call 317-940-9688.
