Writing in the Dark Retreat
-
DATE CHANGED TO MARCH 11! We had to reschedule due to bad weather, so you have another opportunity to register. Treat yourself to an all-day workshop with guest instructor Jean Anderson. The retreat includes breakfast and lunch, literary camaraderie, and a day of stimulating discussion focused on the theme “Kindling the Fires: Creating Enduring Prose in a Cold Place.” What brings a piece of prose to life? What magical combination of artistry and technical skill gives a specific piece of fiction or nonfiction its fire? This day-long workshop will focus on finding the fiery raw energy — and the sometimes well-hidden technical skill — in work from a few established writers. Then we’ll set ourselves the ongoing task of applying what we learn to our own writing, beginning with on-site work sessions. Bring a notebook or laptop, bits of your own work in progress or your best writing secret to build on today (or later) or to share with the group. Carry in a favorite novel or story or essay by your favorite writer, some private ideas about what makes it tick, and a willingness to share your thoughts. Registration fee: $45 in advance; $50 at the door For more information, Jean Anderson biography, and the registration form visit https://fairbanksarts.org/literary-arts/writing-in-the-dark/.
