Dear Gotham,
 
I am so fortunate to have found Gotham Writers Workshop. I sold my business of ten years to pursue my lifelong dream of writing fiction full time. I was contemplating where to begin when a friend mentioned a Memoir class she’d taken at Gotham.
 
To see if Gotham was right for me, I took the one-day Intensive in Fiction Writing. Then I enrolled in the ten-week course, Fiction I, where I learned to write short stories. Then I took Fiction II and was able to refine my work as I studied the craft of writing more deeply. I was exposed to literary magazines and given a perspective on what they look for.
 
Recently, my short story “Hidden Faces” was published in Collier’s Literary Journal. And I am currently working on my first novel!
