Want to learn a new approach to essay writing that is fresh and fun? In this three-week workshop we will liberate our minds and recover from the trauma of the “school-essay” mentality by creating hybrid essays that engage the reader, reflect our realities, and push the limits of what an essay can be. Bring any projects or ideas you're working on--memoirs, family histories, love letters, journals, or thoughts you want to share about life, art, history, spirit, geography, the world! This course is open to writers of all genres, backgrounds, and skill levels, 18+.
ire’ne lara silva, 2023 Texas State Poet Laureate, is the author of five poetry collections, furia, Blood Sugar Canto, CUICACALLI/House of Song, FirstPoems, and the eaters of flowers, two chapbooks, Enduring Azucares and Hibiscus Tacos, a comic book, VENDAVAL, and a short story collection, flesh to bone, which won the Premio Aztlán. Most recently, ire’ne was awarded the 2021 Texas Institute of Letters Shrake Award for Best Short Nonfiction. http://www.irenelarasilva.wordpress.com
