Binging The Syntax: A Workshop for Greedy, Horny Sentences

About the workshop: In this workshop we will look at examples of engorged, energetic, fervent, and audacious syntax, consulting some literary theories of the sentence along the way. We will examine these sentences for their various multiplicities and anticipations, considering how many temporalities, attitudes, and points of view one might dare to contain. Please bring your favorite writing tools (laptop, journal, notebook, etc) as well as any work-in-progress you would like to infuse with hotter, juicier, and sluttier sentences (or simply come as you are and ready to generate fresh content). Open to all levels and to those working in any form or genre.

Tickets are sliding scale, pay-what-you-can $10-20.
