Discover the extraordinary within your own history. This writing workshop empowers you to merge your true personal narratives with the compelling frameworks of speculative fiction.


Move beyond mere memoir. We’ll explore methods to refract your lived experiences through lenses of the surreal, the alternate, and the imagined futures. The focus is on using speculative elements as powerful tools to illuminate, exaggerate, and interrogate the deepest truths of your authentic story. Your reality provides the anchor; together, we will build the strange and wonderful ship.

Amazing workshop! I’ve never thought that finishing a story was a skill or that it could be taught, but Marie (Vibbert) showed me I was wrong. She has changed the way I approach my writing and given me tools to push through the barriers that were stopping me from finishing the work I start.

I’ve taken one of her RYA classes before and received advice that finally knocked me out of my writing slump! Premee Mohamed is also one of my all-time favorite authors! You can’t go wrong!

I learned so much about myself and my writing habits from the Writing with ADHD course. I will take the knowledge I learned here with me not only in my writing, but in my daily life. This class was just what I needed to move up to the next level.
