Genre-Bending Essaying: Hybrid Writing as a Catalyst for Change - Day Two, Editorial:
An all day symposium and workshop where writers will discuss experimenting with genre-defying and hybrid writing - including working with images and other mediums. We will look at the essay's role as a catalyst for change as we explore important, essential and difficult subjects and themes. Workshop leaders include Ruth Little, Richard Price, and Laura Edbrook & Alice Bain of MAP Magazine. To conclude the day there will be an evening event that is open to the public with of readings and discussion.
This symposium, run in conjunction with MAP Magazine, will be the second of two days of workshops and will focus on generative editorial processes. The first day will be held in Edinburgh on 27 April. Both are organised by Elizabeth Reeder from the Creative Writing Programme at University of Glasgow and are generously supported by the Royal Society of Edinburgh.
