Joan Logghe - Workshops |
Joan is available for workshops and readings in your community. Workshops can be tailored to fit the time frame and interests of your writers. Twenty years of leading workshops in a variety of settings, from penitentiaries to living rooms, art galleries to museums, zen centers to churches, have trained Joan in a flexible and humorous approach. Week long workshops at Ghost Ranch, ten years deep, continue to delight participants (including evaluations). A workshop in your town may lead to a lifelong writing group as evidenced in Boise, Idaho where Joan is a yearly visitor to the Log Cabin Literary Center with the "Logghe Gals". A reading, or reading followed by a writing workshop in your museum, B & B, school, living room, or gallery will jumpstart your muse. Topics include: Poetics for Earth Householders: We'll read and write forms from many cultures, including the ghazal, pantoum, tanka, anaphora, and Beat ragas. The Story and the Song: An exploration in prose and poetry of the plot lines and songlines of a life, a fabulous riff with Your Material. Writing Under Extremes: Extremities such as illness, death, love, or crisis may be places of breakthrough for your writing. We'll map out the territory and navigate the rapids with writing. Especially suited to groups of therapists, residential treatment centers, or anyone willing to free fall off the comfortable edges, we'll also discuss and experience how healing may be a fringe benefit when the focus is on the writing, not the self. Writing the Range: Full tilt boogie, a sampler of writing style and genre, memoir to monologue, sudden fiction to sestina. Enliven your writing gang with a fresh blast of outsider energy. Be at home on the range of writing.
