**This workshop is now full but you may sign up to be put on a waiting list. You will be contacted if there is room to attend.**
In conjunction with the 2010 Community Read of Philip K. Dick’s “Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?,” the Tompkins County Public Library will sponsor a five-part Science Fiction Writing Series.
Facilitated by theoretical physicist Carl Frederick, the workshops will be held each Wednesday in October from 6:00 to 8:00 PM in the BorgWarner Community Room.
Participants of all ages and skill levels are invited to learn valuable tools for developing story elements, storytelling technique, critiquing skills and the business of short story writing. On Wednesday, November 3, writers will have an opportunity to share their work during a closing reception in the Library’s BorgWarner Community Room.
Frederick is a graduate of the Odyssey Writing Workshop and has been writing fiction since 2000. His 2009 story, “The Universe Beneath Our Feet” won Analog Magazine’s Best Short Story of the Year Award. Frederick’s biography can be found on his website, darkzoo.net.

The 2010 Community Read has been made possible by the Brooks Family Foundation and Cornell University
