About the Class:
A Very Special Writing Class (or Claire’s Writing Cult), is a playful and challenging class with weekly exercises and writing prompts — that run the gamut from surreal to straightforward, very deep to very dumb — will encourage you to get out of your head, delve into your unconscious, and develop your authentic voice, leading to vulnerable, funny, fierce, strange, and surprising work. Each week, we’ll subvert elements of memoir, theater, fiction, and other genres to help inspire creativity, with a curriculum that’s designed for artists of all kinds: writers, comedians, performers, filmmakers, visual artists, and non-artists interested in exploring creative expression. Dropouts, shut-ins and people picked last in gym class are welcome!�*Jocks, geniuses and the well-adjusted are also welcome. This is an inclusive class.
Student testimonials
“Taking Claire's class reminded me of the joy of exploration and the connection that’s made possible by being vulnerable in my writing.”
“Claire is a master of uncorking the absurd. Her class created an attitude of play and honored a part of my brain that is not linear or logical, giving me permission to allow myself to go in more divergent creative directions.”
“I had a blast and was super inspired. This class totally got my creativity flowing in a great way and now I’ve been writing almost every day.”
