STUDIOS

Below are a few basic parameters of a Studio. We will determine, with your input, a specific plan and budget based on your needs, the number of participants, number of days, and your goals.

All Studios are also available online, which will not significantly change the cost—we put the same work and consideration into both. We love in-person, on-site Studios, but understand that’s not possible for everyone to host. If we come to you, costs do not include transportation and housing for instructor(s) and/or guest speaker(s).

While we know the value of our work and need to earn fees that are compatible with our skills, we aim to be reasonably-priced, so are completely willing to work with your budget or help you justify one.

Not sure what you want? We can help you develop something! We can talk to your class, your group, or work with just you. Do you want to work through a manuscript or just one page? The options are endless.

We are also working on hosting a few collaborator-led Studios that are very specific in goal or theme. Their prices will be listed and all funds will be theirs (we won’t take a cut!) Collaborator-led Studios may include:

  • How to interview

  • How to write an OpEd

  • Patterns & structures in narrative

  • Writing characters

  • How to write a book review

  • Pitching magazine editors

  • Pitching agents

  • Rhythm, voice, and tone

  • Beginnings, middles, & ends

If you are a writer who wants to lead such a Studio, send Kerri a note.
