PITTSFIELD, Mass. — Berkshire Community College (BCC) presents a six-week workshop called "The Writer's Elixir: A Creative Writing and Self-Publishing Master Class" on Wednesdays, January 24 through February 28, from 6-7:30 pm. 

 

The cost for all six classes is $120. 

 

According to a press release:

 

Do you have an idea for a children's book, short story, novel or e-book? Use this course as a guide to help you develop, write, revise and find a home for your project. If you've always wanted to write but you aren't sure where to begin, instructors will help you craft a concept from your own ideas or from a provided prompt. Participants will learn theories about why we write, grammar, elements of storytelling, fiction versus nonfiction, style, medium, process, revision and finding a home for your work and/or self-publishing.  

 

Classes will be held at BCC's main campus, located at 1350 West Street, Pittsfield. To register, visit www.berkshirecc.edu/writers-elixir.
