A fiction workshop exploring the sometimes-overlooked short stories that draw their strength from "genre" forms.
About this Event

Starting Tuesday, September 16, 6 - 9 pm, and meeting for 8 weeks (skipping November 4) this workshop takes place at the Inprint House, 1520 West Main Street, Houston 77006.

HANNAH KELLY, former fiction editor for Gulf Coast: A Journal of Literature and Fine Arts, leads this workshop Blurring the Line: Genre and the Short Story. What can the contemporary short story writer learn from the power inherent in storytelling not bound by realism? In the modern day, the form of the literary short story can have a reputation for stuffiness, for sticking to the well-trodden halls of psychological realism with a focus on the ordinary, the mundane, the regular. Many excellent stories have been written following this style, but this canon can sideline countless brilliant stories that venture beyond realism. This class will aim to explore sometimes-overlooked short stories that draw their strength from "genre" forms (Science Fiction, Horror, Magical Realist, Fabulist, Fairytale, etc.) Learn more about this writing workshop!
