Writing Groups and Editing

EDITING

I’m available for editing of shorter pieces (up to around 3000 words) and larger conversations talking through essays, short stories and submission strategy. I enjoy the relationships I’ve formed with fellow writers and consider myself a good teacher and cheerleader. I’ve successfully helped writers place their essays in online and print publications. Please contact me for rates: ninabadzin@gmail.com

CREATIVE WRITING WORKSHOPS

At ModernWell in Minneapolis, I lead writing groups for writers of all levels. Thursday afternoons are full, but we sometimes have space on Tuesday mornings throughout the year and during the summer. Email me to inquire about upcoming starts dates. (ninabadzin@gmail.com) You do not need to be a member of ModernWell to attend. In many cases you do not need to live in the Twin Cities as more and more classes are happening on Zoom. The groups even preceded ModernWell, when Julie Burton and I started them in 2015, renting space at Hopkins Center For The Arts.

I loved this testimonial from Katie Gibson in Boston.

You can read my description of the groups on ModernWell’s site.

There was also this piece in Southwest Journal.
