If a piece of prose is an experience of another mind, then each sentence reveals the contours of this consciousness. The sentence is the seed from which every narrative, character, and theme emerges.
In this virtual workshop, Raeden Richardson will help you water that seed, dissecting the sentences of Garielle Lutz, Lucia Berlin and Lesley Nneka Arimah. Learn how to write with authority, borrowing from cinema to consider how shots, like clauses, train an audience to submit to the waiting page. We’ll discuss, dissect, disagree and divert our gaze to the moment the pen hits the paper – just there, and not a step further.
