Classes

Good Books In The Woods is located about 35 miles north of Houston, TX. That’s significant because the graduate creative writing program at the University of Houston is consistently ranked in the top 5 in the nation. Houston is filled with writers and poets who have their Masters in Fine Arts from U of H. Some of them even like to teach writing. We offer 8 week writing workshops taught by U of H MFA grads. The teachers are working writers who have been published. A typical workshop meets here for 2 ½ to 3 hours once a week for 8 weeks. The workshop is limited to 10 participants so everyone gets individual attention. The goal of the workshop is to help the participants become better writers. The instructor and classmates will offer written as well as verbal feedback designed to improve your writing. The atmosphere is laid back and supportive, but the feedback is not sugar-coated. The instructor will tell you what works in your writing and what doesn’t and how you can improve. Beginning writers are welcome, but please be dedicated. Classes take place at the store after regular business hours. Please be 21 years old or older if you wish to enroll in a workshop.
