About

Write-O-Rama is an afternoon of workshops offered by Hugo House’s writing teachers. Learn how to craft a found poem, improve the voice of your fiction, write a nonfiction micro-essay, or participate in the many other tutorials we offer—all in the course of a day. It’s a chance not only to sample Hugo House classes and teachers, but also to experience genres and topics outside of your purview without the pressure of registering for a full class.

Registration begins at 12:30 p.m. The first class begins at 1 p.m. There are at least five class choices per 50-minute session. Choose your favorite, head to the room in which it’s held, and the instructor will give a brief talk on the topic followed by a writing prompt or exercise. At the 50-minute mark, we’ll race through the halls ringing the Write-O-Rama bell, and you can head to your next class of choice. At 5, join a happy hour downstairs to celebrate the day's writing!
