Wobble, Swirl, Silence, Scream: Using Syntax to Express Mental Health States via The Inner Room (virtual)

  • Katherine Standefer 4516 Lower Gros Ventre Road Kelly, WY, 83011 United States (map)

Sunday, October 18 from 12-2pm ET / 9am-11am PT

In this two-hour workshop hosted by Jessy Easton’s The Inner Room, you’ll learn how to use syntax—sentence- and paragraph-level craft choices, including punctuation, spacing, rhythm, tone, and register—to create visceral experiences of mental health states in your writing. We’ll also discuss how syntax choices can pace a story, slowing down or speeding up the unfolding. Come ready to build some new sentences as well as to look at short samples by published authors together.

Sign up information forthcoming.
