This workshop will follow the credo of Blake and Crazy Horse, encouraging an esoteric, rather undeveloped territory to be dove-tailed into literary writing.<br /><br />That is, here the participants will be introduced to developing a "sixth sense" which can inform literary writing, especially the form of fiction, voice of poetry and content of creative non-fiction. Here we utilizing archetypes and mythological symbols to contact "intuitive" truths which can then inform metaphors and metonymy.<br /><br />Participants will explore ways to tap their night dreams in order to develope characters within fiction/flash fiction And to inform their poetic voice. Calling on the muses, this workshop infuses a writer with ways to unravel the dream that is "life". And become an active co-creator/creatress of realities which can inspire our current human condition into an expansive transformation.<br /><br /><span style="color:#ff9900;">Details</span><br /><br />All genres will find this workshop relevant.<br /><br />There are no prior assignments other than readings; suggested reading list will be provided for students beforehand. </span><span style="font-size:85%;color:#ff9900;"><em>It will include work by <span style="color:#ff9900;">Frank Waters,</span> Harvey Arden, Sharon Doubiago and Marija Gumbutas. </em></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;font-size:85%;color:#ff9900;"><strong><a href="http://www.butterflywriting.blogspot.com">back to home</a></strong></span><br /><br /><span style="font-size:85%;color:#ffcc33;">copyright 2005</span><br /><span style="color:#339999;"><span style="font-size:85%;color:#ffcc33;">antoinette nora claypoole</span> </span><br /><span style="color:#339999;"><span style="font-size:78%;color:#ffcc33;">All People are One</span><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /></span><span style="color:#339999;"></span><span style="color:#339999;"></span><span style="color:#339999;"></span><span style="color:#339999;"></span><span style="color:#339999;"></span><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/12211996-111363291686079595?l=butterflyone.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>antoinette nora claypoole, editorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18385471672658548560noreply@blogger.com4
