SUMMARY:PorchLight: The Free Gen: Iowa City’s Original Generative Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Co-sponsored by PorchLight and Iowa City Poetry\, the Free Generative Writing Workshops provide a space for career writers\, curious beginners\, writers of all income levels and stages of life. Their goal is to make it easy to meet and learn from some of the most talented writer/teachers living in or passing through Iowa City. Every month a new writer leads a generative workshop\, presenting a prompt inspired by their own preoccupations\, passions\, or interests. The Free Generative Writing Workshops are offered in a hybrid format. \nRen Arcamone is an Australian writer living in Iowa City. She attended the Iowa Writers’ Workshop and the Clarion Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers’ Workshop\, and she’s a recipient of the PEN/Robert J. Dau Short Story Prize for Emerging Writers. Her fiction has appeared in Gulf Coast\, the Washington Square Review\, Electric Literature\, and elsewhere. She’s at work on a short story collection and a novel.
