An hour before each class, you will receive a prompt: a word, image, or phrase. As with the original Boot Camp course, you will draft a piece based on the prompt, and join your fellow writers to share what you've written. Trust the process. Be amazed. You and your classmates have wondrous stories to tell when prompted.
