Mining the Mundane: Finding Creative Inspiration in Everyday Life

Room: Classroom A, Portal | 1:00 PM- 2:00 PM

Description

As Jerome Bruner said, “We live in a sea of stories”—but that doesn’t mean they’re easy to spot, much less to put down on the page. This generative workshop will explore strategies to find creative inspiration from your daily life. Participants will also take part in guided writing to put the ideas presented in the workshop to use, with time at the end to share their work aloud if they would like to. It will be open to all experience levels, from people who want to write but don’t know how to start through published authors who are looking for new strategies to find ideas.
