All killer, no filler

Life finds a way… to do everything except sit down and write a nice newsletter. I actually have things to say! But I also have an event in NYC this Saturday, and if I keep waiting for actual newsletter-writing time, that will have so extremely already come and gone. So here we have pure information, no filler (thinking, feeling, reflecting, etc). Event info first, then a bit about a new class:
Saturday, July 18 I’ll be at the Museum of the Moving Image in Queens giving a talk at their First Contact event. It’s free! The line-up is insane, go look. Then RSVP!
I guess I’m a cultural theorist??? Rad.
Much farther in the future—September!!!—I’m bringing back a refreshed and revamped version of one of my favorite classes to teach: The Intentional Writing Process. A bit about that:
Writing is an art. But it is also skilled work. All too often, we expect great writing to bubble out of us unprompted, as long as we make space for the muse to arrive. But what really makes space for the muse is a whole lot of skills and strategies.
In this one-day intensive for writers of all experience levels, through lecture and individual exercises, you’ll learn about the science of writing development and how you can use that knowledge to build a better writing process for yourself. We’ll talk about working memory, generation vs. assessment, how to quiet your inner critic (or at least tell her to wait her turn), and revision strategies that will make writing better and more enjoyable, every step of the way.
This class will be recorded, with video available for two weeks after the class.
To learn more, and register, go here. There’s an early-bird discount this week, and student discounts forever.
And that’s it from me for now! I have to go cook some tofu and feed my family and all sorts of things like that.
