We’re excited to announce our first in-person event: our Flash Fiction & Poetry workshop!

Dive into the world of short stories and poetry with with Homer Humanities’ Flash Fiction & Poetry workshop. You’ll learn to express more in fewer words, with a hands-on, practical exploration of compact storytelling and verse. Through practical exercises and constructive mentor feedback, you'll learn to distill your ideas into impactful stories and poems.


Get published!
