Writing From Life: Holidays Edition with Grace Talusan

December 17, 2022 @ 5:00 am - December 18, 2022 @ 4:59 am

Have you always wanted to write? Have you wanted to write about your holiday traditions, foods, and memories? Come to this low-stakes, generative writing session for all levels and experience. You will practice a creative process for writing from life that you can repeat on your own. Through writing exercises for personal essay and memoir centered on the holidays, however you define the holidays, we will write in community. Sharing your writing is not required. Everyone is welcome.

Grace Talusan is the author of The Body Papers, the winner of the Restless Books Prize for New Immigrant Writing, the winner in nonfiction for the 2020 Massachusetts Book Awards, and a New York Times Editors’ Choice selection. She is a 2022 US Artist Fellow, NEA Creative Writing Fellow, and Brother Thomas Fellow. She teaches on the faculty of the Nonfiction Writing Program at Brown University.
