Writers make you see something that doesn't exist! In this generative workshop, we will approach writing as an act of transmutation that allows us to convert experience into language and cultivate a playful, co-creative relationship.Hosted by Isabelle Appleton - Dear Butte resident for the month of May 2026.
Isabelle Appleton's fiction and essays can be found in The Paris Review, Joyland, Conjunctions, The New England Review, The Washington Square Review, Loose Tooth Press, and elsewhere. She holds an MFA in Fiction from NYU, where she received the Alpine Fellowship, the Thesis Research Award, and the Goldwater Fellowship, and a BA in Religion from Vassar. She was a 2025 Ucross Fellow. At Dear Butte, she'll be working on her novel about a four-woman family and a medical trial. Originally from St. Louis, she lives in Brooklyn.
