| IRS990/Desc | 0 | Six-Week Workshops :Clarion West's renowned Six-Week Workshop is an immersive six-week residential experience geared to help students build a foundation for professional careers as writers of speculative fiction. Participants must apply to attend and there are more applicants than there is space in the workshop. We especially encourage historically underrepresented writers to apply. In 2022 Clarion West accepted 18 writers from India, Australia, South Africa, Venezuela, Singapore, Zimbabwe, Guyana, and around the United States to attend the Six-Week Workshop with instructors Susan Palwick, P. Djeli Clark, Fonda Lee, Tobias S. Buckell, Bill Campbell, Annalee Newitz, and Charlie Jane Anders. Clarion West hosted the workshop at Highline Community College in Des Moines, WA. Writers spent six-weeks writing one short story every week and critiquing 17 others, learning to improve and hone their story writing skills, and learning insights into the writing, publishing, and editing industry. |
