SUMMARY:Poetry Workshop: Fable and Fabulation
DESCRIPTION:Poetry Workshop co-led by Stephanie Yorke and John Wall Barger \nEnrollment: $35 each.\nTo register contact Stephanie (syorkefreelanceediting [at] gmail.com) or John (johnwallbarger [at] gmail.com)\nLimited enrollment.\nhttps://johnwallbarger.com/poetry-workshop-fable-and-fabulation/ \nWORKSHOP DESCRIPTION:\nPlayful writing exercises and enthusiastic discussion come together in this team-led workshop by poets Stephanie Yorke and John Wall Barger. Why do so many poets turn to myth and fable in their poetry? And why are some old stories dusty and boring\, while others still feel vital and rich? From Grimm to Gilgamesh\, from Dante to the Tibetan Book of the Dead — in this workshop\, participants will have the chance to engage with ancient myths that continue to inspire contemporary poets to create their own original writings. \nFACILITATORS:\nStephanie Yorke has published one poetry collection\, Both Boys Climb Trees They Can’t Climb Down (Signature Editions\, 2012)\, and her poems appear in journals including The Fiddlehead\, Grain\, PRISM international\, and The Malahat Review. She also writes essays about poetry and literature\, and holds a doctorate from the University of Oxford. \nJohn Wall Barger’s poems appear in American Poetry Review\, Rattle\, The Awl\, The Cincinnati Review\, Poetry Ireland Review\, and Best of the Best Canadian Poetry. His poem\, “Smog Mother\,” was co-winner of The Malahat Review’s 2017 Long Poem Prize. His fourth book\, The Mean Game\, is coming out with Palimpsest Press in spring 2019. He is an editor for Painted Bride Quarterly.

SUMMARY:Irreversible Entanglements @ Suoni Per Il Popolo
DESCRIPTION:Suoni Per Il Popolo & CKUT 90.3FM present \nIrreversible Entanglements: A Philadelphia free-jazz poetry band that came together in 2015 to perform at a Musicians Against Police Brutality concert. Now an internationally touring phenomenon\, their blend of liberation sounds and direct\, visceral lyrics breathes new life into the legacy of the fusion of poetry and Black music. The dynamic band of exciting\, experimental artists (Keir Neuringer – alto saxophone\, Aquiles Navarro – trumpet\, Luke Stewart – double bass\, Tcheser Holmes – drums) skillfully reacts to poet Camae Ayewa’s (a.k.a. Moor Mother) powerful lyricism. \nTomeka Reid & Moor Mother: Recently described as a “New Jazz Power Source” by the New York Times\, cellist and composer Tomeka Reid emerged as one of the most original\, versatile\, and curious musicians in the Chicago’s bustling jazz and improvised music community over the last decade. Now based in New York\, her distinctive melodic sensibility\, usually braided to a strong sense of groove\, has been featured in many distinguished ensembles over the years. \nA personal and political project with a DIY mindset\, Moor Mother transgresses fictional aesthetic borders between noise\, hip hop and punk rock to create afrofuturist liberation music. \nwww.suoniperilpopolo.org\nInstagram: @suoniperilpopolo\nTwitter: SuoniPopolo

SUMMARY:Write The Body Electric: A Creative Process Workshop for Writers in All Genres
DESCRIPTION:Workshop Leader: Stacey Engels \nCost: $160 for QWF members; $190 for non-members \nCost of QWF membership (annual) plus workshop: $200 \nPayment is due within one week of registration to confirm your spot. Please review our cancellation policy. \nFor more information\, or to register: (514) 933-0878 or workshops@qwf.org \n* \nThis two-session course is open to writers in all genres. \nWhether you have a specific writing goal or are playing with the puzzle pieces of a new project\, this class will provide strategies for developing good work habits\, honing your curiosity and finding inspiration everywhere–without and within. \nOver the two Saturday sessions\, we will learn to find the sweet spot between discipline and freedom. We aim to break the boundaries that stand between us and our true innovative capacities\, and develop the boundaries that safeguard and sustain a regular writing practice. \nIn each session\, we will discuss selected writings in different genres\, drawing on these and non-writing media for inspiration in creative experiments. We will play with colour\, sound\, rhythm\, and form to ignite the senses and expand our understanding of what’s possible in writing\, before diving into prompts and exercises. \nWe will also borrow from meditation techniques to focus our concentration\, explore our preconceptions about time\, and ally ourselves with our bodies as sources of information and inspiration. \nWith practice\, using the techniques shared in this course\, participants will learn to maximize their available time\, bypass the inner critic\, and tap into inspiration\, innovation\, and authenticity every time they sit down to write.

SUMMARY:One Poem\, Many Voices: A Workshop on Writing Collaboratively
DESCRIPTION:This workshop is FREE and OPEN TO ALL. Registration is NOT required. \nCollaborating in the creation of a poem connects us deeply with each other. The process is always full of surprises — dynamic\, inventive\, and fun. \nIn collaboration\, we get to see how people really understand our words. They take them up and go places with them\, unexpected places! Through listening and responding\, we open doors we didn’t know were there: doors in our selves\, in our perceptions\, in each other. \nThis workshop engages participants in a variety of approaches to writing poems collaboratively. \nYour workshop guides\, Mary di Michele and Susan Gillis\, have more than a decade of experience in writing poetry collaboratively. In addition to their active individual practices\, they have written and published together as members of Yoko’s Dogs since 2006. Susan’s fourth book of poetry\, Yellow Crane\, appeared in 2018. Mary’s twelfth book and latest collection of poetry\, Bicycle Thieves\, was published with ECW in 2017. \nThis event is taking place on the traditional and unceded territory of the Kanien’keha:ka. \nGenerously supported by the Community Cultural Action Fund (CCAF) of the Department of Canadian Heritage.

SUMMARY:Baie-D’Urfé Library Open Mic Night
DESCRIPTION:Barbara Burgess\, a QWF member and Montreal author\, will read a few pages from her latest novel The Cacouna Caves and the Doorway to the Golden Planet: Book Two in the Cacouna Saga. The open mic event will take place at the Bibliothèque de Baie-D’Urfé (the Baie-D’Urfé Library) on May 30 at 7:30 PM. \nBurgess’ novel is set in Quebec\, this time in a not-too-distant future age. The first part of the novel is dystopian\, as it deals with a world ravaged by climate change.

SUMMARY:This Way To Egress: Developing a Novel or Memoir Already in Progress
DESCRIPTION:Workshop Leader: Maya Merrick \nCost: $80 \nPayment is due within one week of registration to confirm your spot. Please review our cancellation policy. \nFor more information\, or to register: (514) 933-0878 or workshops@qwf.org \nPT Barnum billed his “Egress” as a fearsome attraction\, but visitors to his museum found out the truth: The egress was nothing more than the exit. During this workshop\, we’ll do a little truth-seeking of our own to discover what completing a novel or memoir is really all about. We’ll debunk some myths\, allay some fears\, and demystify the process\, turning the thought of finishing a long work from a petrifying prospect to a realistic goal. \nWriting a novel or memoir in isolation can be exhilarating\, but it can also leave you with abandoned drafts\, half-written chapters\, and the sinking feeling that there’s no way out. Gaining insight from unbiased readers—myself and the other members of the group—in a supportive\, creative atmosphere will help you identify issues\, clarify your intent\, and find real ways to improve your manuscript. To this end\, our primary focus will be on the craft of writing. Through exercises and activities\, we’ll pinpoint potential trouble spots and equip you with the tools to address them. \nActivities will be combined with discussions aimed at helping you gain new insight to constructing and completing your novel or memoir. We’ll explore ways to approach characters\, work with point of view (POV) and tense\, create immersive scenes\, and reinforce the structure of your existing manuscript. Because writing a novel or memoir takes as long as it takes\, this workshop is designed to inspire you to finish your manuscript in your own time. \nThis workshop is intended for writers who are looking for guidance and encouragement while working on a novel or memoir already in progress\, so please be prepared to share elements of your work with the group. Ideally\, you’ll have a portion of your novel or memoir already completed\, as well as a solid grasp of the story you’re working on. \nWe’ll be doing writing exercises in pairs or groups\, so be sure to bring a pen and paper with you. Readings and illustrative materials will be provided.
