Develop Your Work in a Supportive Community!
Are you working on a manuscript, story collection, or other writing project? Join this intimate writers circle to share your work-in-progress in a structured, supportive environment using Liz Lerman's acclaimed Critical Response Process.
THE WRITERS CIRCLE offers a unique opportunity to receive meaningful feedback on your writing through a proven methodology that respects both the writer and their work.

with Weekly Assignments
When was the last time you wrote something too intimate to send? Or sent something that changed everything? Or discovered a box of old letters that revealed an entire life you never knew about?
Enter the transformative world of epistolary writing. Letters, diaries, emails, and hybrid forms become portals of possibility, collapsing time and distance through the power of direct address. Here, you'll speak secrets, reveal truths, and build emotional bridges impossible in any other form.
Drawing from masterful examples, you'll push creative boundaries while developing your distinct voice. Weekly sessions merge writing with expressive arts—collage, calligraphy, photography, painting, etc—to illuminate your stories in unexpected ways. No art experience needed.
Join this workshop to transform your writing through the intimate art of the epistolary. Limited to 6 participants.
Saturdays
15:30–18:00 CET*

A Community Writing Practice
In this popular series, Molly applies multi-layered writing prompts as springboards to unleash participants’ imaginations and authentic voices, helping them find creative flow while building a vigorous and sustainable writing practice in community with others. Writings are shared in an atmosphere of trust and deep listening. As part of her signature methodology, Molly draws on many sources of inspiration such as poems, essays, short stories, photographs, and excerpts from novels. You will naturally explore the building blocks of good storytelling and plant seeds that might grow into fuller, more developed pieces. There are no writing assignments outside of class.
This series is open to writers of all levels.
5-week IN-PERSON series.
Dates TBA
“Molly’s style and presence is always fused with passion, imagination, commitment and humor. I appreciate both her solid planning and her willingness to take flight and move in a new direction if need be.”
