Description

 The Factory:  Focus on Fear with Emily Costa will take place on Tuesday, September 30th from 7 to 8:30 pm in the Workshop Gallery at Ball & Socket Arts.

As we creep towards Halloween, let’s look at all the ways fear presents itself in our writing. How might we tap into our own fears for material? How can we use fear to develop characters? To create tension? In this generative workshop, we will explore fear through exercises and prompts, learning how to embrace what frightens us the most.

Workshop is limited to 12 participants, so be sure to register now! 

$30 gets you 90 minutes of instruction in the Workshop Gallery at Ball & Socket Arts from 7 to 8:30 pm.  If cost is a barrier to participation, please reach out to our team by emailing info@ballandsocket.org to discuss accommodations.

She received her MFA in fiction from Southern Connecticut State University where she teaches English.
