SUMMARY:Intersections of Identity and Experience\, History and Imagination: A Generative Workshop
DESCRIPTION:In this workshop\, open to prose writers and poets of all ages and backgrounds\, participants will use freewriting\, revision\, and in-depth feedback as tools to create work that can spark new writing possibilities or build on an existing project. The class will address these types of questions: How do we synthesize our experiences and histories with acts of imagination? How do we break silences and heal from trauma through storytelling? How do we write about intersections between our race\, gender\, sexuality\, and other aspects of our identities in effective and nuanced ways? Participants will be encouraged to draw from personal\, family\, and cultural histories\, in a supportive yet critically constructive writing environment.
