A Walk on the Dark Side: Gothic Erasure with Kristine Esser Slentz

In this two-session class, we will explore erasure techniques and apply them to popular Gothic tales to create our own stories or poems. We will delve into erasure masterpieces from Chase Berggrun, Jennifer Tamayo, Francisco Levato, and Nicole Sealey to better understand this increasingly popular technique. We will then apply what we learned to the works of Mary Shelley, Oscar Wilde, Gaston Leroux, or any other Gothic texts students would like to work with. This workshop will include close reading, a generative component, and a feedback session.

Creating Scenes that Move the Story with Desiree Kannel

In this 4-hour workshop, writers will analyze scenes from their own work and learn how to decide what to cut and what to revise. We will discuss scene structure, effective transitions, and how to let character motivation drive the plot instead of the author’s agenda. Writers will leave with a better sense of what may be missing from their work in progress and tips on how to move forward. This workshop will include exercises on dialogue and setting. Each student will be asked to bring a scene from their own work to be revised in class.
