XWRT6038 - Writing the Body

Course Description

This writing workshop explores somatic expression, through responding to physical sensations that we feel and connecting them to our emotional state. Through a combination of reading, lecture, discussion, and somatic exercises, students explore ways to express a character's emotions by writing into the sensations and signals of the human body. Students will be expected to attend two class sessions and complete the required reading and writing exercises at home. This class is open to a range of levels from aspiring to professional writers.
