The Write Attention is a podcast where we explore the questions and challenges we are paying attention to in our journey as emerging writers
Join us in welcoming guest Colette Walker on The Write Attention podcast for our discussion on personal revelation and audience responsibility in Episode 9. The group dives into when they first identified as writers and share effective strategies and resources for making writing workshops work to the writer’s advantage, discussing writing the way into personal revelations or a personal journey in a project and how that may inform the character’s journey. In past episodes we have talked about show and tell. Now, we explore the audience's responsibility or role in our writing. Colette reminds us to let the audience do some work and why that is so important.
This episode also includes an excerpt of Colette Walker reading an excerpt from her work, LET THE DEAD BURY THEIR DEAD.
