SUMMARY:Using Invented and Foreign Languages as Tools for World Building: A Fiction Workshop with Rita Bullwinkel
DESCRIPTION:A dynamic Fiction Workshop facilitated by author\, Rita Bullwinkel. This workshop will be held every Saturday 10 AM – 12 PM from Mar 6 – Apr 10.\n\nCLA WRITERS WORKSHOPS are open to individuals of all backgrounds–including those who are exploring creative writing for the first time–as well as aspiring writers who want to prepare their work for publication. Workshops are modeled on graduate-level creative writing courses\, and may include short in-class writing assignments to jumpstart the writing process\, as well as work outside of class that will entail reading the work of select published writers\, critiquing the work of other workshop participants\, and writing a piece to be workshopped by the class. Each participant will receive written comments from the instructor. Workshops are led by accomplished local authors\, including students and alumni of the San Jose State University Creative Writing Program.\nTuition $250 // Eventbrite\n\nCOURSE DESCRIPTION:\nOne of the big things that makes us\, as readers of fiction\, read on into a book is mystery and\, very often\, that mystery comes in the form of a word or idea we don’t yet understand. As a writer\, one way to rope your readers in is to deliberately use words that you know your audience might not understand\, and then\, through context\, teach your readers the meaning of those words. This is a tool used frequently in fantasy as well as literary writing. In this workshop we will explore several examples of this invaluable literary tool and learn how we can best deploy this strategy in our own fiction.\nRita Bullwinkel is the author of the story collection Belly Up\, which won the 2018 Believer Book Award. Bullwinkel’s writing has been published in Tin House\, The White Review\, Conjunctions\, BOMB\, Vice\, NOON\, and Guernica. She is a recipient of grants and fellowships from The MacDowell Colony\, Brown University\, Vanderbilt University\, Hawthornden Castle\, and The Helene Wurlitzer Foundation. Both her fiction and translation have been nominated for Pushcart Prizes. She is an Editor at Large for McSweeney’s and a Contributing Editor for NOON. She lives in San Francisco and teaches at the California College of the Arts.

SUMMARY:Alta Live: Denise Hamilton
DESCRIPTION:In Speculative Los Angeles\, bestselling author and Alta contributor Denise Hamilton reimagines her hometown in dramatically disparate ways by commissioning 13 stories from some of the city’s most prophetic and diverse voices (and adding her own). She joins Alta Live and Alta editor at large Mary Melton for a deep dive into speculative fiction in the City of Angels. \nREGISTER \nABOUT THE AUTHOR:\nEdgar Award finalist Denise Hamilton is the author of seven crime novels and the editor of the anthology Los Angeles Noir (which includes the Edgar Award–winning short story “The Golden Gopher” by Susan Straight) and Los Angeles Noir 2: The Classics. She is a former Los Angeles Times journalist\, a Fulbright Scholar\, a noir and sci-fi/fantasy geek\, and a proud L.A. native. \nABOUT THE BOOK:\nAs an incubator of the future\, Los Angeles has mesmerized writers from Aldous Huxley to Octavia E. Butler. With its natural disasters\, Hollywood artifice\, staggering wealth and poverty\, and urban sprawl\, the city is\, arguably\, already so weird\, surreal\, irrational\, and mythic that any fiction emerging from it should be considered speculative. That’s the approach bestselling author Denise Hamilton took as she assembled 14 stories (including one of her own) and did exactly that in Speculative Los Angeles. \nIn these pages\, you’ll encounter 21st-century changelings\, dirigibles plying the suburban skies\, black holes and jacaranda men lurking in deep suburbia\, beachfront property in currently landlocked Century City\, walled-off canyons and coastlines reserved for the wealthy\, psychic death cults\, robot nursemaids\, and an alternate L.A. where Spanish land grants never gave way to urbanization. Speculative Los Angeles features new stories from Charles Yu\, Aimee Bender\, Lisa Morton\, Alex Espinoza\, Ben H. Winters\, Denise Hamilton\, Lynell George\, Stephen Blackmoore\, Francesca Lia Block\, Duane Swierczynski\, Luis J. Rodriguez\, A.G. Lombardo\, Kathleen Kaufman\, and S. Qiouyi Lu. •

SUMMARY:Submission Roulette
DESCRIPTION:First impressions count—and they never count more than when you’re trying to impress an editor who has 1\,500 submissions to read. Editors often say that they can tell within the first page whether a story will be worth accepting\, so how do you make your first page really shine? Eavesdrop on our evaluation process—and vie to get your story noticed—with Recommended Reading editors Halimah Marcus and Brandon Taylor. They’ll be reading opening pages submitted just for the occasion\, sharing their reactions and thought processes as they go. Submit your own first page anonymously to see if your story has what it takes to catch our editors’ eyes\, or simply tune in to see how other writers fare.  \n  \nSubmission instructions: You can find the link to submit in the chat\, on the right hand side of the event page. (Please note\, you will only see the chat if you are registered for the event.) If you are unable to find the submission portal or have questions about submitting\, email preety@electricliterature.com. Please submit one page of fiction\, double spaced\, in 12 pt\, Times New Roman font. Your submission should be the first page of a story or novel chapter that you would like to submit (to a literary magazine\, agent\, MFA program\, etc.). Do not include any identifying information on the document. You may submit only one entry. \n  \nWe will select and anonymize a dozen or so submissions to read and respond to during the salon. Prescreens will be conducted by other RR editors so Brandon and Halimah will read the work for the first time live on Crowdcast.  \n  \nSubmissions are optional. You are welcome to attend the salon without submitting. Please be advised that salon submissions will not be considered for publication\, and that not all submissions will be read during the salon. For information on how to submit your stories for publication in Electric Literature\, please visit our submissions page.

SUMMARY:Evening Literary Seminar: The Color Purple by Alice Walker
DESCRIPTION:THIS SESSION IS ONLINE\nThe Color Purple by Alice Walker \nWow do you owe it to yourself to (re)read The Color Purple. The linguistic richness\, the twist on the epistolary structure\, the breadth of warm\, complex characters—all of this makes The Color Purple a must-(re)read. Dive in for Walker’s amazing use of dialect alone! \n Winner of the Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Award\, Walker’s 1982 novel has been one of the nation’s most “challenged” books\, often banned for violence and (excellent\, progressive) sexual content. While all the awards are exceedingly well deserved\, Kimberly mostly couldn’t believe just how smart\, absorbing and inspirational the book feels in 2020. \n Perhaps overshadowed by the works of Toni Morrison\, Maya Angelou and even the inimitable Zora Neale Hurston—whom Walker resurrected from literary oblivion—Walker’s masterpiece deserves more attention and our careful dissection. Join Kimberly for this delicious novel\, one that’s particularly important as we Americans examine longstanding thoughts about sex\, race and inequity. \n Book will be shipped directly to you so that you may read it prior to the seminar. You may also choose to pick the book up at Kepler’s in Menlo Park as another option.
