My review:

Our diverse students are ~ LukeZahraBrooksDominikaStanleyRuchiSebastianLev & MayaAlice is the instructor.

This is week one of their creative writing class that takes place on Tuesday’s and Thursday’s. They share what they’ve written with the class and give and receive constructive criticism.

I like how different fonts were used and how the spacing varied to set the stories apart, which showed the diversification of each students ideas through poems and short stories. Some stories were humorous and others not so much, but my favorite story was from Luke about the President and his mom.

It’s not all about the classroom setting. When not in class we follow them during studying, partying and cuddling, which gives the reader more background information on each individual.

There was a bit about Friends that I was incidentally reading while it was on my TV at the same time. What a coincidence that has nothing to do with anything really. Also, I like the word ‘jalopy’ too, Stanley.

Overall, a well executed and interesting concept for a book series.

Nine writers enter… only one will escape.

The Workshop: Week One introduces nine competitive undergrads who will battle for literary supremacy and existential purpose via sixteen weeks of Creative Writing in Various Media. Who will find a career? Who’s gonna cry all the way home? Who had garlic for lunch?

*Mature language warning*
**Publisher font recommended–crazy format action**
