    Revision is typically considered the geekiest of creative writing undertakings--the last to be picked for the team or asked for a dance. Wasn’t it enough, many writers wonder, to make the Herculean leap from blank page to first draft? The truth is, revision is its own art and can be a wildly beneficial part of the creative process...if you allow it to be. In this workshop, you’ll focus on crappy or not-quite-there drafts of a personal essay, and through targeted exercises, assignments, readings and workshops, move it closer to completion and publication-ready.
