December 10:  Angela Siew - Writing Joy and (De)light 

Why is it that we don’t write more often about joy and delight, gifts or blessings – how can we more easily access these moments? What themes/images do joy and delight work with or against in memorable writing? For those who celebrate the upcoming holidays, this can also be an opportunity to explore how your faith connects to joy or delight, particularly through the theme/image of light. During this session, we will discuss poems and other short prose from writers such as Ross Gay/Aimee Nezhukumatathil, Chen Chen, Marie Howe, and others. Our aim will be to learn from and be inspired by their work, as well as freewrite from prompts to generate the beginnings of our own pieces. There will be time at the end for us to share our work with each other. All levels of experience and all genres are welcome. This workshop builds upon the Writing Joy workshop offered at IWWG’s Summer 2024 conference. Both returning and new participants are encouraged to attend.

December 11: Melissa Michal - Flashes of Fiction 

In this 90-minute workshop, we will discuss the palpable and rich textures these tiny, but mighty, stories can evoke through how other authors weave their fiction elements with so few words. Examples will include works from today’s literary journals and past notable iterations, and we will use such examples to help us define how character, point of view, description, and setting play key roles in this form not being pegged a prose poem. Throughout the workshop, we will engage in several writing exercises to practice the form and try new craft techniques. This workshop is for any level and will inspire all, even those previously nervous to try to write in under 1000 words.
