Corporeal Creativity

Monday, March 11 - 6:00 PM


How can prose writers and poets enhance writing by translating feelings, memories, and sensations to the page? In this mind-body creative workshop, we will read, write, meditate, and reflect on this question. We'll begin by looking at writing by Lydia Yuknavitch, Richard Selzer, and Jeanette Winterson to explore different ways to reference sensation on the page and use the body to tell a story or heighten impact. After completing a few writing prompts, we'll discuss how to balance sensory details with other descriptions and use the body as an instrument to explore memory. This workshop will help you to improve your sensory details, mine life experience, and enhance the impact of your poetry and prose.
