Cosy Radical Storytelling;
queer speculative fiction writing session
The stories we tell are constantly shaping our reality as we shape them. These stories move through us, metabolically nestled inside the body, until they are ready to diffuse back out into the world, maybe as new stories. Our storytelling muscles are essential for weaving the worlds we desire and need some training! Come along on the 22nd for a collective writing circle, where will spend time with your imaginations and hopefully write together stories of queer worlds of resistance and regeneration.
No prior writing experience is needed, but if you have an existing idea for a story please bring it along. Or perhaps you have an excerpt of an existing story or favourite speculative fiction book that you can to share with the group? Or an object that prompts imagination? We will propose some short writing exercises to get us started, otherwise we will work with the material you bring and the space will be open for whatever the collective mood invites.
See you for a cosy evening for queer imagination and storytelling.
