Winter Generative Workshop with Lidia Yuknavitch, Feb. 1-3.

The Corporeal Writing Center 510 SW 3rd Ave #101, Portland, OR, United States

Digging down. Tunneling Under. Hibernation. Exploring the cold, the dark, the depths. In this generative workshop will focus on “going deeper” by producing a “layered” text and then multiplying its potential meanings by asking what is underneath its surface and how can I access the deeper stories? Trust me there is a lot underneath every surface. Workshop leader: Lidia Yuknavitch Co-facilitator: Domi Shoemaker
