Generative Class with Hea-Ream Lee

$40.00

What if we thought about place in creative nonfiction as more than just the backdrop for our stories? What if place became, as essayist Sonya Huber wrote, a lens through which we view the world? In this generative, hour-long class, we will consider techniques for evoking the places–the forests, parking lots, cities, and ecosystems–that we know best. We will close-read a diverse array of writers, and will work through exercises to hone our skills in writing about place in creative nonfiction.
