This three-hour masterclass will focus on developing methods for research and building organic forms in narrative (or not?) nonfiction. Though a series of short readings and graduated writing assignments, we will attempt to invent new accounts of the past and possibly, the future. Some of the themes we will pursue include time, memory, objects, design, and speculation. Participants will read and write new work in the session and should be prepared to discuss their process as it relates to the exercises.
