Two Truths and An Imagined Scene Keema Waterfield
In nonfiction, we are bound by an oath of truth, yet some pivotal moments in our lives are obscured or fragmented by time, age, and distance. This generative workshop will focus on bridging the gap between fixed memories, lost ones, and scenes we may not have been privy to.
We’ll begin by exploring craft elements in the assigned readings, followed by guided writing, where we’ll dig into previously inaccessible portions of our narrative using three key prompts. Participants should expect to leave the session with tools for using what we don’t know to shape the story of ourselves, and possibly, the germ of an essay in hand.
