Narrating Grief Through Poetry #2 – Workshop led by Becky Nakashima-Brooke & Ryan Collins

Posted on by Ryan Collins

Following their “Narrating Through Grief” workshop in November, MWC and Illuminate Healing Studio will host a writing workshop centered on grief: writing into and through it, using sound and poetry as tools to both capture and release it in creative ways. Hosted by Becky Nakashima-Brooke and Ryan Collins, the program will feature a sound bath, brief readings and discussion, and time to write and share as a group. This workshop will feature different readings and writing prompts than the last one, FYI.

Please email Ryan Collins (mwc@mwcqc.org) to register. Cost for the workshop is “pay-what-you-can” at the door on the day of the event; if you can’t pay anything, no problem.

Application Bootcamp: How to get the residencies, fellowships, grants, and other opportunities you want – Virtual Workshop led by Jeffrey Wolf

Posted on by Ryan Collins

As Virginia Woolf once wrote, any successful writer needs financial support and a room of one’s own. For today’s writers, this often means winning grants, fellowships, and residencies (including MWC’s own Great River Writers Retreat). But how do you find these opportunities? Where should you apply? How do you approach writing cover letters and proposals? This class will be a crash-course in applying for things as a creative writer.
