    The GWG announces

    Kristina Marie Darling's workshop on Autofiction

    This fiction workshop will explore the sub-genre of autofiction, or, fiction with an autobiographical element.  Questions we will consider include:  When should writers take artistic liberties with the stories they have lived?  How can writers use metaphor, stylistic innovation, and experimentation with narrative structures to convey powerful emotional truths?  The workshop will combine in-class readings and discussion with generative writing prompts.  

    Bio Note: Kristina Marie Darling is a twice-awarded Fulbright Scholar. Her work has also been recognized with three residencies at Yaddo, where she has held the Martha Walsh Pulver Residency for a Poet and the Howard Moss Residency in Poetry, a 2024 Villa Lena Foundation Fellowship, a 2024 Civita Institute Fellowship, and eleven juried residencies at the American Academy in Rome.
