Writing from Home (via Zoom)

Local writers, working in a variety of genres and forms, meet with participants for two, 90-minute sessions during consecutive weeks. Each writer, inspired by a work(s) of art in the Museum’s collection, chooses the theme, format, and form for the workshop; allowing both the writers and participants maximum choice. Participants have an opportunity to also share their writing. Sign up for both sessions with one writer or sample across disciplines.

Theme
How to be personal without getting personal

Often we get conflicting bits of advice on writing. Write what you know. Look outside of yourself. Show not tell. Why show what's obvious. This workshop considers the idea of the personal and the autobiographical within fiction writing. How can we be personal without getting too personal? How can we use ourselves and our stories without getting too overwhelmed by them?

Inspirations images
SBMA’s Rico Leburn, Self Portrait (1940), and The Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Yasuo Kuniyoshi, Self-Portrait as a Photographer (1924).
