Lit Fest 2025

Using letters from the alphabet, participating writers will utilize free-association and automatic writing to generate ideas and call upon their memories to begin drafting and crafting their own lyric essays. This class will primarily be a generative space. The title of the workshop pays homage to Bobbie Louise Hawkins who published a collection of stories, essays, and memoirs of the same name with Coffee House Press in 1989 (there is no need to read this book).
