Resident Writer Sean Avery Medlin.
This workshop, for poets and non-fiction writers, investigates or states the effects of having one’s social identity/identities (mis)represented by beloved fictional characters. By examining poets such as Marlin M. Jenkins, Melissa Lozada-Oliva, and A. Van Jordan, we will explore complicated feelings around projection, identity markers in speculative fiction, and commodification of identity, closing by beginning works that critique, celebrate, reimagine, or all three.
