Breaking the Academic Mold Jul 10th, 2023 Venue: Lake Junaluska Conference and Retreat Center Categories: Regional Workshop, Writing Workshop This writing workshop is for scholars of religion and theology who have written exclusively or primarily in the scholarly genre for other scholars of religion but long to share their knowledge or personal experience in a more creative way with a wider audience. Many scholars yearn to speak to a broader audience through creative nonfiction, blogs, op-eds, and memoir. Participants in this workshop will develop their writing voice in service to topics they care about, and for which they have passion and curiosity. Our focus will be on releasing the professors’ voice to the public square, giving permission to be imaginative, and finding new ways of being inspired. Applications are due Wednesday, March 8.
Perils and Promises Jul 6th, 2023 Venue: Collegeville Institute Categories: Writing Workshop The act of befriending is a necessary human practice, and friendship is also an important element of many faith communities. Friendship often builds authenticity, inspiring individuals and communities to pursue qualities such as healing, liberation, presence, and growth. Transformative friendships steeped in depth can also add stability to our world. How do these truths about the possible nature of friendship intersect with society’s reckoning with racial injustice? In particular, where do friendships between Black women and white women fit within these broader conversations? Does it matter that such friendships can expand understanding and also suffer because of our racialized society and the impact of white supremacy? This writing workshop grapples with these questions at the intersection of race, faith, and friendship and explicitly centers Black women’s stories. This writing workshop is invitation-only. All spots have been filled.
About Me, About You Jun 19th, 2023 Venue: Collegeville Institute Categories: Writing Workshop This generative week-long workshop aims to build an interfaith writing community by and for women of color who seek to write creative prose (fiction, nonfiction and hybrid forms) that is inspired by personal experience. Guided writing exercises and discussions will focus on generating new work rooted in participants’ experiences as women of color from different faith backgrounds living and writing in America. In so doing, the workshop seeks to expand existing and limiting narratives about women of color both within their faith traditions and in the larger culture. Applications for this workshop are no longer being accepted. Applications were due by Sunday, January 15, 2023.
