Writing From Life, with Emily Lackey—online
Lorrie Moore once said that, “for the writer, the facts of life are like ingredients in a kitchen cupboard.” The cake we make is the story we end up telling. “That,” she says, “is how life and art are related…” No matter what we write, our experiences, observations perceptions and inclinations are the greatest inspiration and fodder for our work. In this weekly generative workshop, writers will receive a series of prompts to help them tap into their deepest material and move them into a sustained period of writing. Afterward, we’ll have the opportunity to share our work and receive thoughtful feedback from the group. Handouts include weekly craft lessons!
Mon or Wed, 6:00 – 9:00 p.m.; 10-week session begins the week of October 30th, 2023 ($395) Register Now
