If you can’t wait to turn the page, the writer has succeeded in telling you a great story. What does it take to develop characters, settings, dialogue, and plot elements that have you on the edge of your seat? This workshop answers those questions and more! We’ll breakdown the parts of fiction writing each week and test out what we’ve learned with some on-the-spot writing. You’ll work with your peers, too — giving advice and feedback, while hearing what they have to say about your work.

Not only does this workshop make you a better writer, but when you understand the process, it makes you appreciate your favorite writers even more. Don’t leave us on the edge of our seats — register now for this workshop!

We welcome you to Snobby Poetry, should you be up for the challenge. We’re a self-motivated, uber-supportive band of misfits who read, write, and share poems. We love words, rhyme (only when used sparely, thank you), observation, and Walt Whitman (obviously). Poetry is an illogical measuring device, filled with seemingly impossible comparisons and instructions; that is why we are called to write it. We are the liars who tell the truth. If this sounds like you, or if you’ve already taken a class with Jane LeCroy and want more, Snobby Poetry is the workshop for you.

History isn’t just about dates and facts—it’s full of people, choices, resistance, survival, and change. In this workshop, writers will dive into the art of historical fiction, exploring how to bring the past to life.

Through guided exercises, research, and group discussions, writers will learn how to create rich settings and compelling characters, navigate sensitive topics, and explore themes that still resonate today. Whether you’re fascinated by ancient Egypt, the Harlem Renaissance, WWII, the Mongol empire, or even the more recent 1980s, this workshop will help you transport the reader to another time and place. We’ll also explore speculative fiction, where we ask “what if” history had turned out differently. Historical fiction isn’t just about the past -- it’s about understanding how we got here, who we are today, and who we might become.
