Ephemera is defined as “something of no lasting significance,” or “lasting a very short time.” It often is used to refer to paper items such as tickets, letters, posters, broadsides and receipts that were originally meant to be discarded after use. While these temporary objects may not appear to have a lasting value, we will use real ephemera to inspire a character and a moment in time. While these objects may not be lasting, we will explore through story how anything can leave a lasting impression. This workshop is designed with fiction in mind, but nonfiction writers and poets are welcome at any level.
