Have you ever sat with a draft of an essay or a chapter of a memoir in-progress and thought, “What now?” Or have you received feedback on a piece but can’t seem to find a way to re-enter your own story and implement your ideas? In this one-day intensive, we’ll focus on craft strategies for revising a work of nonfiction. You will bring a draft of an essay or a chapter of a memoir to work on. The goal of this class is for you to receive a revision toolkit that will energize and motivate you onto the best path forward for your work of nonfiction. We will talk about nonfiction revision tips and pitfalls, you will rework sections of your piece keeping craft elements in mind through guided prompts, and you will receive verbal feedback.

"Tyler Mills exemplifies the best qualities in a teacher of poetry. She is a fountain of information about craft and innovation. She is an encourager, building her students confidence by highlighting their strengths. Beyond that, she is an astute editor that importantly, gives feedback that amplifies the poet’s unique voice. Her wise counsel about the business of poetry and getting published has been life changing for me." - former student
