Are there too many trees in my story?: How to harness the forces of nature in your narratives

In this workshop we will discuss ways that writers use natural landscapes to form characters, to create rhythm and structure, and to communicate themes in their writing. You don’t need to be an expert in the natural sciences to enjoy and benefit from this workshop.  We will practice writing exercises designed to help you hone your observations of nature as it relates to you and to help you to use the forces of nature as more than just a backdrop to your stories.
