Now on Zoom!

Jill Hoffman, the founding editor of Mudfish, leads this workshop of poetry, memoir, and fiction from Tribeca, New York City. The Mudfish Writing Workshop is a great group with writers at every level, ongoing since 1990. It is sustaining, inspiring, and instructive. All writers read aloud each week, and get and give honest and constructive criticism. Mudfish editors are recruited from the workshop; best work is considered for publication in Mudfish.

Currently the workshop meets Monday and Wednesday evenings from 7:30-11 pm. Attendance is $600 for ten sessions, or $60 per session.

To sign up, call Jill at (212) 219-9278 or email her at [email protected]
