In this workshop\, we will use our own memories of taste\, touch\, sight\, sound\, and smell to make descriptions of place and setting more unique and specific. Generative exercises will encourage writers to consider how the story world helps shape character and how their characters experience the world. Are there certain senses that might be more pronounced in the world of the story? Do your characters feel more comfortable or competent with one or two of their senses? How are you\, as a writer\, utilizing your full arsenal of descriptions to help your reader embrace and experience the world you have created?\nThis generative workshop is aimed primarily at writers of speculative fiction\, but is applicable and suitable for all writers and writing levels.

SUMMARY:LGBTQIA+ Writers Workshop
DESCRIPTION:INSTRUCTOR: Justin Jannise\nTIME: Six Tuesdays\, June 4\, 11\, 18\, 25\, July 2\, July 9\, 6:30–9:30 p.m. CDT\nPRICE: Early bird price: $210 for members\, $240 for nonmembers.

Writespace\, 1907 Sabine Street\, #125\, Houston\, TX 77007 (map). This workshop is also available via Zoom.\nLEVEL: All levels\nCAP: 15\nQueer literature has grown wildly in recent years\, right alongside a public awakening to the increasingly various possibilities of gender identity and sexual preference. And yet communal creative spaces where LGBTQIA+ people can safely meet\, interact\, and share ideas seem more vulnerable than ever. With this workshop\, we aim to foster a safe and welcoming rapport among LGBTQIA+ writers where we can discuss ideas critical to queer identity.\nWe’ll not only read the work of writers who identify as LGBTQIA+ (including our own)\, but we’ll also consider how queerness interacts with the wider literary community. In addition\, we’ll set aside time for discussion and group feedback on our projects—both new and ongoing! All literary genres are welcome. Expect to come away with new work\, new understanding\, and new friends.\nThis workshop is open to any writer who identifies as LGBTQIA+ regardless of the subject matter they intend to address or the genre in which they write.

SUMMARY:Writing the Past from the Safety of the Present
DESCRIPTION:INSTRUCTOR: Sarah Gajkowski-Hill\nTIME: Sunday\, June 2\, 3:00–6:00 p.m. CDT\nPRICE: Early bird price: $45 for members\, $60 for nonmembers. The deadline for early bird pricing is Monday\, May 27. After Monday\, May 27: $55 for members\, $70 for nonmembers. Become a member here. Apply for a scholarship here.\nLOCATION: Online via Zoom\nLEVEL: All levels\nCAP: 15\n“Anybody who has survived his childhood has enough information about life to last him the rest of his days.” – Flannery O’Connor\nIn times of uncertainty\, and certainly since the pandemic\, writing our stories can prove more painful than we have bandwidth for. We may find ourselves avoiding writing altogether or writing too sporadically to make real progress. Thankfully\, there are ways through this kind of writer’s block\, and this workshop is about finding those ways through simple sensory-guided memory writing.\nThe instructor will walk participants through exercises designed to help writers tell their stories from the safety of the present. From paying careful attention to the senses to casting a deep net for positive\, cherished memories\, we will attempt to articulate the visceral details of a singular time and space while remaining present with our current emotions and surroundings.\nWe will read excerpts from memoirists such as Nabokov and T.S. Eliot\, to Jeannette Walls and Mary Karr\, and many more\, to aid us in crafting our own memoir essays/confessional poetry.\nThe instructor will also touch briefly on rules for editing and revision. Sharing will be done in a safe space and only if one feels comfortable doing so.

SUMMARY:Write Yourself into Main Character Energy

Apply for a scholarship here.\nLOCATION: Writespace\, 1907 Sabine Street\, #125\, Houston\, TX 77007 (map)\nLEVEL: All levels\nCAP: 15\nOne theme of The Wizard of Oz is that Dorothy had the brains\, courage\, and heart that she needed all along. It just took a little journey and some challenges to find it.\nOften we act like a sidekick looking for a wizard to save us instead of embodying main character energy and accepting the call to adventure. This workshop will focus on self-reflection and finding your own voice\, using writing exercises and other powerful techniques to strengthen your purpose\, increase your resilience\, and change your perspective. Let’s write your hero’s journey!\nSession 1. Laying the Foundation/Storyboarding. We will use goal-setting\, vision boards\, archetypes\, and other self-reflection activities to explore the hero’s journey.\nSession 2. Drafting a Character Arc. We will use creative nonfiction to “script” our ideal selves\, detailing how this improved self could handle the phases of the hero’s journey and imaginatively exploring what it might take to transform.\nSession 3. Reflection. We will take time to reflect\, revise\, and share our journeys.

SUMMARY:Virtual Talk: Black Soldiers and the Lone Star State during World War II
DESCRIPTION:Like many other areas of the United States during World War II\, Texas saw an increased military presence as new military units were raised and posts were built to train them. Among them were many Black Americans who came to Texas to train for the war effort. While it is known that famous units such as the elements of the Tuskegee Airmen and the 761st Tank Battalion were trained here\, many other Black units were also either raised in the state or conducted training here\, ranging from Coastal Artillery to Engineer Regiments.\nJoin our Director of Exhibitions Cale Carter to learn more about the history of these units and their impact on both Texas as well as the war effort. Brought to you by the Friends of the Texas Historical Commission

SUMMARY:Quilting Together Your Scraps and Pieces of Writing
DESCRIPTION:INSTRUCTOR: Jessica Cole and Jamie Portwood\nTIME: Sunday\, May 19\, 3:00–6:00 p.m. CST\nPRICE: Early bird price: $45 for members\, $60 for nonmembers. The deadline for early bird pricing is Monday\, May 13. After Monday\, May 13: $55 for members\, $70 for nonmembers. Become a member here. Apply for a scholarship here.\nLOCATION: Hybrid. Writespace\, 1907 Sabine Street\, #125\, Houston\, TX 77007 (map). This workshop is also available via Zoom.\nLEVEL: All levels\nCAP: 15\nAnyone else have scraps of writing just sitting in the Google drive or an overstuffed notebook? Short pieces consisting of a single\, sharply drawn memory or some lovely lines from a poem that was never finished. Do you have paragraphs from memoir pieces or stories that you just couldn’t delete because they are so true and truly beautiful?\nWhat do you do with them all? They seem so random and disjointed?\nThese pieces do all have something in common; you wrote them and you like them\, so we are going to have an old fashioned quilting bee. Through collective wisdom\, mentor texts\, generative exercises\, and group sharing\, we will seek out the colors\, themes\, patterns\, and images and patch together these seemingly disparate scraps into a quilt of surpassing beauty. Will it be a poem? An essay? A hybrid piece that defies genre but hits the heart just right? Who knows?\nLet’s find out together. Bring printed copies of your favorite scraps\, blank 8X10 paper\, tape\, and a pair of scissors.\nThis workshop can be taken in person at the studio or online via Zoom.\nThis event is funded in part by the City of Houston through Houston Arts Alliance. This project is generously funded by the Houston Mayor’s Office of Cultural Affairs\, and Mid-America Arts Alliance.\nThis project is generously funded by Mid-America Arts Alliance\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the state arts agencies of Arkansas\, Kansas\, Missouri\, Nebraska\, Oklahoma\, and Texas.

In this workshop you will explore the where\, what\, how\, and why of critique groups. The instructor will share her own experiences with “good” and “bad” critique examples\, what works and what doesn’t\, and answer questions and concerns about critique groups.\nExperienced critiquers will get to problem-solve with the instructor and newbies will gain specific and usable tips on how to and how not to critique the work of others. Best practices will be shared\, validated\, and reiterated\, including the purpose and function of critique groups\, how to find the right group for you\, what kind of writing to bring to a group\, what to do with the comments given to you in critique groups\, and how being a part of a critique group helps you with more than just the revision process.\nYou will leave this workshop ready to try out one (or a few) critique groups or even start one of your own!
