Synopsis:
Writers don't need formulas; they need encouragement to take risks. The Lab offers a bold, hands-on approach, urging writers to embrace uncertainty, experiment with form, and investigate what haunts them.
The Lab features ten chapters and ninety exercises challenging writers to play with fiction, memoir, and poetry--or push toward hybrid or entirely new forms.
This is a book for those ready to dig deep and write fearlessly.
