Lafayette Writers Studio
Build Me a Hummingbird of Words: Micromemoirs
February 9, 7:00 pm
Online
The hummingbird is the only bird that can fly forward, backward, sideways, and, for short distances, upside down—hummingbirds can do things other birds can’t do precisely because they are so small. In this class, we’ll look at tiny texts and learn what can be accomplished in a small space that can’t be accomplished in a bigger one. We'll look at word-hummingbirds such as the monostich, the 6-word memoir, the aphorism, the ten-second essay, and the American Sentence. We’ll end with a focus on the micro-memoir, providing instruction, a prompt and suggestions for how you can write your own micro-memoir. More Info >>
