Learn to write in the shadows.
In this workshop celebrating Noirvember, participants will have an opportunity to develop and burnish their creative writing skills with an editor, published novelist and film enthusiast as their guide. You will receive and be encouraged to think about innovative examples of fiction in the genre known as Noir. Workshops will focus on the place of Noir in literature and the cinematic imagination. Throw shade on your writing, in the coolest way possible!
Please bring a sample of your writing to the first workshop and be prepared to share your work with others in a respectful setting.
This workshop will be led by SPL's Writer in Residence, Garry Thomas Morse.
