The Art of Revision: Seeing Our Work Anew
with Charlotte Gullick via the Writer's League of Texas
Saturday, June 17, 2023, 10:00 am - 1:00 pm Central Time (Online)
Revision means to look at our work again – but this can be difficult because we are already so invested in what we have on the page.
When it comes to revising book-length work, like a novel or a memoir, we can become unsure how to proceed with making the work better. This class will help close the gap between what we already have and what we need in order to invite readers to stay engaged at all times. In this three-hour class, we will play with exercises that allow us to gain distance and objectivity on our current work so that we can move it toward greater clarity and impact. Students will come away from this class feeling empowered and with a clear game plan for how to take their work to the next level.

This workshop will explore the connections between the physical body and vocal and creative expression. You’ll learn how to let go of unnecessary bracing and tension in the body to create greater personal empowerment and expression. The day will include a series of gentle, mindful movement exercises, guided attention, vocal explorations, and plenty of time for reflection, journaling, and discussion. We will also have a lunch break where you could walk around the property or find a place to sit in silence and practice sensing/perceiving your body. Participants will leave with an enhanced sense of physical grounding, coordination, and integration that embodies confidence, empowerment, freedom, flexibility, and creativity.
