Workshop Proposal Form

Pioneer Valley Writers' Workshop: Workshop Proposal Form

* Note to all: Because of the growing interest in teaching at PVWW and the abundance of qualified instructors, we cannot guarantee that everyone who submits a class proposal will be scheduled to teach in the upcoming season. Acceptance of a class depends on many factors including what other classes are being proposed, what classes we've had trouble filling vs. what topics are in demand, and the quality and thoughtfulness of the class being proposed. We are specifically looking for fiction & nonfiction one-day workshops that illuminate and break down elements of craft.
