What is a linked short story collection, and how do you write one? Is it the same process as novel-writing, or different? What are the writer's choices for linking short stories? Is one choice simpler than another? Which method of linking short stories would work best for your writing?

In this workshop, you will learn to identify how your stories - published or unpublished, typed or handwritten - fit together and how to enhance and deepen the book’s themes. in this one-day session, you will start (or continue) your collection.
