Join us for a generative morning of reflecting on the deep, down WHY’s of our writing projects, and how a turn inward to explore our own personal struggles, unfinished business, wishes, longings, and so many other intimate things, can be one of the best gifts we give to our work.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/em><\/p>\n

In this workshop we will:<\/p>\n

– Discuss and explore individual writing processes.
\n– Consider new possible approaches to our writing.
\n– Discuss the influence of audience on our work (for better and worse).

\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>The (Short) Road Trip: A Generative Workshop<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Road Trip is one of the oldest tropes in literature \u2013 there is something that is probably fundamental to our nature that is drawn to stories about heroes setting out on quests, returning in triumph, or escaping to a new life. Think of Odysseus, Huck Finn, Peewee Herman. The Road Trip can provide stories with structure, conflict, and desire.<\/p>\n

Using the short stories \u201cWork\u201d by Denis Johnson and \u201cPretty Ice\u201d by Mary Robison as our roadmaps, we will discuss certain elements of fiction craft. \u00a0Each week, I will provide generative exercises, based on class discussions. The exercises together are meant to combine to form a rough draft of a story. In other words, if all goes well, by the end of the course, you will have a first draft of something new.<\/p>\n

All styles and genres are welcome. We will read from our exercises each week and provide each other oral feedback. I will provide PDFs of craft essays and short stories for optional further reading.<\/p>","excerpt":"","slug":"fiction-in-person-2024-110","image":{"url":"https:\/\/inprinthouston.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/resized-for-website-Line-of-people-at-table-writing.jpg","id":"5520","extension":"jpg","width":599,"height":400,"sizes":{"thumbnail":{"width":150,"height":150,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","ewww_image_optimizer":"Reduced by 1.6% (104.0 B)","url":"https:\/\/inprinthouston.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/resized-for-website-Line-of-people-at-table-writing-150x150.jpg"},"medium":{"width":300,"height":200,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","ewww_image_optimizer":"Reduced by 2.4% (335.0 B)","url":"https:\/\/inprinthouston.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/resized-for-website-Line-of-people-at-table-writing-300x200.jpg"},"nav-thumbnail":{"width":75,"height":75,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","ewww_image_optimizer":"Reduced by 3.7% (104.0 B)","url":"https:\/\/inprinthouston.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/resized-for-website-Line-of-people-at-table-writing-75x75.jpg"},"event-thumbnail":{"width":599,"height":400,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","ewww_image_optimizer":"Reduced by 3.3% (1.3 kB)","url":"https:\/\/inprinthouston.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/resized-for-website-Line-of-people-at-table-writing-599x400.jpg"},"flex-gallery":{"width":300,"height":200,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","ewww_image_optimizer":"No savings","url":"https:\/\/inprinthouston.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/resized-for-website-Line-of-people-at-table-writing-300x200.jpg"}},"ewww_image_optimizer":"Reduced by 6.8% (3.3 kB)"},"all_day":false,"start_date":"2024-06-01 09:00:00","start_date_details":{"year":"2024","month":"06","day":"01","hour":"09","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"end_date":"2024-06-01 12:00:00","end_date_details":{"year":"2024","month":"06","day":"01","hour":"12","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"utc_start_date":"2024-06-01 14:00:00","utc_start_date_details":{"year":"2024","month":"06","day":"01","hour":"14","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"utc_end_date":"2024-06-01 17:00:00","utc_end_date_details":{"year":"2024","month":"06","day":"01","hour":"17","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"timezone":"America\/Chicago","timezone_abbr":"CDT","cost":"","cost_details":{"currency_symbol":"","currency_position":"","values":[]},"website":"","show_map":false,"show_map_link":false,"hide_from_listings":false,"sticky":false,"featured":false,"categories":[{"name":"Writers Workshops","slug":"writers-workshops","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":357,"taxonomy":"tribe_events_cat","description":"","parent":0,"count":368,"filter":"raw","id":356,"urls":{"self":"https:\/\/inprinthouston.org\/wp-json\/tribe\/events\/v1\/categories\/356","collection":"https:\/\/inprinthouston.org\/wp-json\/tribe\/events\/v1\/categories"}}],"tags":[],"venue":{"id":2251,"author":"21","status":"publish","date":"2015-03-02 16:13:58","date_utc":"2015-03-02 22:13:58","modified":"2015-03-02 16:13:58","modified_utc":"2015-03-02 22:13:58","url":"https:\/\/inprinthouston.org\/venue\/inprint-house-2\/","venue":"Inprint House","slug":"inprint-house-2","address":"1520 W Main St","city":"Houston","country":"United States","province":"TX","state":"TX","zip":"77006","stateprovince":"TX","geo_lat":29.7362907,"geo_lng":-95.3985267,"show_map":true,"show_map_link":true,"global_id":"inprinthouston.org?id=2251","global_id_lineage":["inprinthouston.org?id=2251"]},"organizer":[{"id":29287,"status":"publish","date":"2019-07-17 09:48:51","date_utc":"2019-07-17 14:48:51","modified":"2020-12-22 11:55:22","modified_utc":"2020-12-22 17:55:22","url":"https:\/\/inprinthouston.org\/organizer\/inprint-3\/","organizer":"Inprint","slug":"inprint-3","website":"http:\/\/www.inprinthouston.org","global_id":"inprinthouston.org?id=29287","global_id_lineage":["inprinthouston.org?id=29287"]}]},{"id":50421,"global_id":"inprinthouston.org?id=50421","global_id_lineage":["inprinthouston.org?id=50421"],"author":"21","status":"publish","date":"2024-04-25 11:13:09","date_utc":"2024-04-25 16:13:09","modified":"2024-04-25 11:22:01","modified_utc":"2024-04-25 16:22:01","url":"https:\/\/inprinthouston.org\/event\/50421\/","rest_url":"https:\/\/inprinthouston.org\/wp-json\/tribe\/events\/v1\/events\/50421","title":"Poetry\/In-Person 2024-113","description":"

The Confessional Persona<\/strong><\/p>\n

To write poetry is to explore an emotion. It is through our lived experiences\u2014both painful and pleasant\u2014that we have the ability to make art. In this generative intensive, we will look at confessional poetry and the power of the “I” persona in poems. We will look at the mid-20th century confessional poets as well as more contemporary writers who write in a confessional style,\u00a0analyzing how reality\u00a0and art commingle. Our mentors will include: Anne Sexton, Sylvia Plath, Robert Lowell, Kaveh Akbar, Sharon Old, Louise Gluck, Rachel Wetzsteon, James Merrill, Richard Siken, and more.<\/p>","excerpt":"","slug":"50421","image":{"url":"https:\/\/inprinthouston.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Line-of-people-at-table-writing-e1471389204907.jpg","id":"8100","extension":"jpg","width":7360,"height":4912,"sizes":{"thumbnail":{"width":150,"height":150,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","ewww_image_optimizer":"No savings -

Crafting Character Across Genres<\/strong><\/p>\n

As the great Henry James once opined, a story should never be just a story, meaning it should rarely be just an anecdote.\u00a0 Rather, it should show some true essence of the story\u2019s character to explore some fundamental shift in that character\u2019s psyche from the beginning of the narrative to the end of it.\u00a0 In this weekend intensive, we\u2019ll be rooting ourselves in this exact concept to tackle narrative projects in prose, poetry, and non-fiction works (including the essay) as well as discuss ways in which two or more genres might be blended to create singular forms that best fit the story or stories you are trying to tell.\u00a0 We\u2019ll discuss the ways in which character and persona driven fiction, poetry, and non-fiction can bring about not only shifts in character but also surprising epiphanies and conclusions that land like lightning bolts on the page for yourself and for the reader.\u00a0 A great crash course for those just getting their sea legs in concepts story-telling and the fundamentals of poetry alike. Beginners welcome!<\/p>\n
