Writing Workshop
Workshop: Strong Currents: Writing About Place, Led by Patricia Foster
This workshop will be an immersive writing class focused on the narrative terrain of place and its possibilities for writers of memoir and the personal essay. This means we will explore our inner maps of experience and memory, assessing the physical texture and evocative details of a place (be it a room, a meadow, a neighborhood, a town, or a part of the country) as well as the value systems and moral struggles within that place (what is approved/silenced /avoided/revered/made nostalgic).
