Famous Lady Writers and You: Electric Boogaloo
Taught by Amy Wilson
Ages 14-18, 15 students
Tuesday, May 25, 2010: 6-8pm (one session)
Do you like Elizabeth Barrett Browning? Charlotte Bronte? Marion Zimmer Bradley? Octavia Butler? These writers have something in common (besides, of course, the letter B): they are all Famous Lady Writers. Who are Famous Lady Writers? What makes them tick? What gives them their special — dare we say ineffable — brand of greatness?
In this sequel to last spring's Famous Lady Writers And You, we'll learn about six more Famous Lady Writers. We'll read their work and discuss their lives. Then we'll take a stab at a Famous Lady Writer-style story of our own.
Note: Prerequisites for this workshop include a sense of humor and willingness to write. Being a lady is NOT required. All non-ladies are invited, and encouraged, to attend.
Amy Wilson is a recent graduate of the University of Michigan with degrees in Creative Writing and Literature and Women's Studies. Although she loves to talk in general, she especially loves talking about Famous Lady Writers.
