A playful writing lab on creative risk and imaginative confidence. In this two-hour class, we’ll treat the impossible as completely ordinary. Through brief writing bursts and short “popcorn” readings, you’ll practice committing to strange premises without explaining or apologizing for them. You’ll describe irrational events in calm tones, place mundane tasks inside tilted realities, and let objects take control of the story. The focus isn’t randomness—it’s conviction. Come ready to sound completely confident about something that makes no sense. San Diego Writers, Ink on Facebook / Instagram
