My #group of #fiction #writing in Spanish in #Tepoztlán. (I am the old guy in the cap and shades.) It's really great to accompany, and even somewhat teach, a new generation of #writers! 📝🫶🏽

Would you join a writing residency? Talk about your reasons.

No, not with the aim of writing a lot during this time. I would probably exchange ideas with other authors there and share experiences, which would take up most of my time. It would certainly help me in the long term, but my writing progress would suffer in the short term.

However, a kind of writing holiday alone would be helpful in terms of word count.

I’m filling out an application for a writing residency, and they want a project proposal of up to two pages. How do I write a project proposal which basically says I want to write and edit free of interruptions and distractions? All I’ll need to bring is my laptop, stationery, and maybe some sketch pads. #Proposals #help #WritingResidency #WritingCommunity #Grants

I co-authored an article with Moira Walsh called Digital Mountains, Ink in the Sink. It’s about doing an online writing residency at Banff. You can read it at periodicities : a journal of poetry and poetics. https://periodicityjournal.blogspot.com/2023/05/moira-walsh-and-shantell-powell-digital.html?m=1 @indigenousauthors #WritingCommunity #WritingResources #WritingRetreat #WritingResidency #CanLit #CanadianWriters #CanadianLiterature #OnlineResidency #Writing

Still plenty of time to sign up for the Tinker Mountain summer residency at Hollins U in June. I'm leading a generative workshop for everyone and anyone who writes for teens/kids or wants to. Plus, you'll be able to sit in on craft talks on poetry, non-fiction, memoir, etc. #writers #writing #writingresidency #authors #author #writingclass #writingworkshops https://www.hollins.edu/academics/workshops-online-writing-courses/tinker-mountain-writers-workshop-residential/course-descriptions/
