Please join this inclusive group of speculative fiction writers who aim to hone their craft and build a vibrant community of fellow artists. We will conduct live structured workshops at every meeting after the first, so please come to class with either a completed draft or one well underway.

Sam Milligan is a queer southern writer, educator, and nonprofit communications professional who earned their MFA in creative writing from the University of Mississippi. They can’t wait to meet you and your work.

This class is suitable for all levels.
