Revision as of 12:02, 16 November 2022
Outcome:
Draft of a text exploring a question relevant to your practice. This is material you can draw on when you work on your text on practice next semester.
In this close reading and writing session, taking Anne Boyer's text 'Questions For Poets' as a starting point, we will be looking at ‘mode of address’: how a text speaks to its reader. We will also consider how texts can be in conversation with other texts.
We will explore practical ways to facilitate the writing process using prompts and freewriting, with special emphasis on the question as a form for generating written material. We will also think about questions around our own work.
