Join us on March 28 from 1:30–3:00 PM for World Building with Gwenda Bond, a creative writing workshop led by New York Times bestselling author Gwenda Bond. Inspired by Meg Mitchell’s exhibition A FRAGILE UNFOLDING, this interactive session explores the process of constructing an imaginary world or setting to support a fictional story. Participants will be given exercises and prompts to help develop their own narrative environment. Writers of all levels are welcome to take part in this hands-on workshop.
Gwenda Bond is the New York Times bestselling author of many novels, including the first official Stranger Things novel, Suspicious Minds, the Lois Lane YA series, and the romantic comedies Not Your Average Hot Guy, The Date from Hell, and Mr. & Mrs. Witch. Her most recent novel is a magical art heist book, The Frame-Up. She has a number of forthcoming projects. Her nonfiction writing has appeared in Publishers Weekly, Locus Magazine, Salon, the Los Angeles Times, and many other publications. She co-founded and chairs the nonprofit Lexington Writer’s Room, and lives in a hundred-year-old house in Lexington, Kentucky, with a veritable zoo of adorable doggos and queenly cats.
