Have you ever seen a written recipe? Do you enjoy Great Aunt Gertie’s green Jell-O mold every Thanksgiving? What would it take to “reinvent” a recipe as a unique story?! Participants in this class will do just that!

The ingredients will be the cast of characters. The directions will provide the storyline and plot. The result? Only the cooks (writers) will know if their kitchen-tested recipes will be editable! Join a unique writers’ class with great potential! 

Note: No baking experience necessary. Come and join others with a desire to spin a recipe into an exciting short storyline with interesting characters and plot, staying true to a recipe format. Writers should have knowledge of word processing, create storylines, develop characters, edit their piece, and be able to develop their work with the instructor’s support. The class uses Google Docs.
