Building Tension: Tension isn’t just for horror, it’s the heartbeat that keeps any story alive. In this session, we’ll explore how tension can show up through emotion, description, or plot, and experiment with ways to build that pulse in our own writing so readers can’t look away.

In this session, we will explore how poets give shape to loss and find meaning in what remains. Through close readings and writing exercises, we will discover how grief can become a language of memory, of showing grace, and of transformation.
