The year 2020 has changed us all in ways we are only beginning to understand, but one thing that is true about it, is we know so much more than we did a year ago, including how much we don’t know. In all of this learning, all of this seeing, in all of the reevaluation of priorites, we might be asking the question, do stories of my personal traumas and resilience even matter anymore, and the answer is, a resounding yes. We know each other through our stories, and in knowing each other lies the opportunity to heal. In this generative class we will use the tools of prose craft (point of view, dialogue, structure, form, stance, image) to get our stories started. Each craft element will contain a daily writing assignment which we will complete and share the following day. Emphasis will be using the physical stuff of our lives to access and illuminate the emotional stuff. There will be a reading list of short pieces of prose (fiction and non) to serve as a common body of literature to refer to.

LIVE TIME: 10am-12pm EST.
