Writing Queer Aphorisms (Queer Expression as a Radical Act)
Tickets Off Sale
These are tickets to the Queer Aphorisms Writing workshop only.
Here we will be exploring and celebrating our queerness through creativity, collaboration and writing. Taking inspiration from writers and poets such as Audre Lorde and Franny Choi, artists like Jenny Holzer and organisations such as Black Lodge Press.
Wednesday 20th September 2023, 7-9pm: Creative Writing with Writer and Founder of Queer Writers Club Farah Zeeshan, @Common Press, Shoreditch.
This session will guide you to write your own queer aphorism - a short piece that expresses a personal truth. First we will explore writing and poetry from queer poets and artists, then engage in writing games and protocols to engage your expression and creativity. We will then practise editing techniques to create your aphorisms, sharing and collaborating as we go. Every single writer featured in this session will be queer, and you will leave with several original works, some of your own aphorisms and writing and editing skills.
Age restriction: None
