Writing as Inquiry: Destabilizing the Self for Authentic Non-Fiction
What happens when our writing feels restricted, not inspired, by our life experiences? In this hands-on session, Kate Black will help participants examine how striving for disequilibrium in our writing and thinking practices can generate important, exciting new material to explore. Participants will have the opportunity to apply inquiry-based writing strategies to brainstorm a clear direction for their next creative non-fiction piece (or a life-inspired piece of any genre!).
In 2020, Kate Black was selected as one of Canada's top emerging voices in non-fiction by the RBC Taylor Prize and the National Magazine Awards. Her non-fiction debut, Big Mall, was published in February 2024.
