Choose Your Tier

Tier A — Facilitated Group Sessions · $180
Six biweekly sessions, paired critique, capstone reading, and access to the term's private Discord community.

A generative novel writing workshop for writers ready to commit to sustained, supported progress on a manuscript. Each session runs two hours: an hour of generative writing, an hour of paired reading and critique. The group meets every other week over twelve weeks, with an optional 30-minute check-in call on Discord during off weeks to keep momentum. The term closes with a capstone reading open to the public.

Tier B — Group Sessions + Written Feedback · $300 Everything in Tier A, plus two rounds of written feedback from Sylvia on a chapter or excerpt: once at the midpoint, and once at the end of the term.

Tier C — Group Sessions + Private Sessions · $420 Everything in Tier A, plus two one-hour private sessions with Sylvia, in person or by video. Limited to a small number of participants per term.

Tiers B and C are add-ons to the group workshop and are only available with a Tier A enrollment. Private feedback or sessions are not available as a standalone product.
