Fear of Writing the Erotic
Why do we fear writing the erotic? Internalized taboos? Childhood shame? Great Aunt Marnie? There seem to be more ways to go wrong than ever. And yet, writing towards resistance is what brings a little heat to the page. We’ll look at why the language of sex has become so commercialized it’s all but used up, and why sometimes, the most erotic thing you can write involves no touching at all.

Time Travel
Flashback and flashforward are the fastest ways to time travel, swifter than anything devised for stage or film because they only require the reader’s mind. Yet making the shuttle move smoothly across the loom of time does require some narrative know-how. We’ll spend some time on craft, learning how to depart from an anchor scene and return.
