Psst! Quick - get into June classes!
Extended discounts! A new bundle! And a few question for you! Oh My.
To celebrate Caravan’s first classes ever, we’re extending the early-bird discount.
In six sessions, generate flash writing/narrative portfolios and/or WIP’s from a close study of the fine line between “flash fiction” and “narrative poetry?” and how style can subvert and inform substance into an entirely new way of writing and thinking about writing. Includes a free one-hour, one-on-one consultation with the facilitator if desired.
Every literary genre lives and dies by the presence and vitality of its character. This crash course will explore the function of character in our chosen genre, then move into discovering who our characters are, developing their dimensions, motives, tensions, and quirks, and ultimately creating vibrant, realistic characters with whom readers will resonate and connect.
Weekend Bootcamps
Feeling stuck in a rut? Blank page messing with you? Would you love to create a piece that sounds or feels or looks like nothing you’ve ever written before? Try play! Let loose. Have fun. Experiment. Open doors you didn’t even know were there! Join for a weekend of cavorting with form and structure, frolicking with genre and style, and taking your work along new paths. Discover how play can lead to seriously good work.
The creative process has a lot of highs and lows. This bootcamp isn't therapy - it's a practical approach to balancing creative work with day-to-day life. We'll tackle core practices of self-care, pinpoint go-to habits where we can make changes, and develop strategic responses to issues with attention, anxiety, disappointment, inspiration, and stress.
Have you been feeling some kind of way about writing? Give yourself the gift of two weekends dedicated to your writing for a smoking deal—to reigniting your joy, to untangling from the emotional weeds.
Guess what else is on early-bird discount rates?

We’ve received some feedback from folx who wish they could attend these summer courses but are limited by time zones or other commitments. Are you one of them? Let us know!
In the comments, tell us if you’d like to see our courses and workshops made available for purchase on video. And let us know of any subjects you’re itching to dig into with your fellow writers and the Caravan crew - we’ll plan the calendar for upcoming months accordingly!

Thank you for reading, liking, and restacking so we can connect with the writers who want to join in! We appreciate you.
We can’t wait to write and create with you!
Other time zones would be great. And the option to have the course on video for time zones/commitment clashes would also be much appreciated :)
I would love to see the classes in video format.
My medical condition is a challenge in that it’s difficult to be alert and available on a schedule. I never can predict when a bad flare might occur, where I get brain fog and lose my words.
