Surrealist Microfiction: Sept 9th-11th
Surrealism in microfiction-sized bites can be fun as open rebellion against the forces of order… It can be defined as an artistic attempt to bridge together reality and the imagination. Surrealists seek to overcome the contradictions of the conscious and unconscious minds by creating unreal or bizarre stories full of unlikely juxtapositions, without worrying about logic or reason.
Anything can happen.
According to Bruce Holland Rogers:
“Surrealism fails when it tries to stick to its topic, make sense, be reasonable, or avoid embarrassment. A good surreal story kicks Apollo in the balls.”
In this 3-day session, we’ll be be creating microfiction (200 word max) stories inspired by both story samples and original prompts. Writers of all levels welcome. My workshops are online and asynchronous, and made to be easy for those with busy schedules. Groups are small and nurturing. They are held in a private Facebook group.
Human writers only.
Cost for this workshop is $115 per student.
If interested, you can enrol here.
Please send me an email to let me know you have enrolled in the class.
Looking forward to this!
