SUMMARY:Workshop: Fiction Writing Led by Scott Gould
DESCRIPTION:Register: patconroyliterarycenter.eventbrite.com \nSaturday\, January 20\, 2024 · 2:00 – 4:00 pm EST\nCost: $40\nLimited to 15 participants (A minimum of five participants is needed for this workshop.)\nVenue: Pat Conroy Literary Center | 601 Bladen St Beaufort\, SC 29902 \nMost decent fiction has its origins in one or more real life events. Or to put it another way: the fictional stories we write often rise from the realm of nonfiction. This course is designed to 1) discover something tucked away in your memory that’s story-worthy\, and 2) start telling some lies about it. So\, using a prompt\, we’ll mine your memories for a number of recollections\, then use one or more of those memories to begin a brand-new short story (which\, of course\, means we’ll be talking conflict and character\, as well.) The goal of this session is to walk away with the first page or so of a new piece of fiction\, full of good lies. \nSaturday\, January 20\, 2:00-4:00 p.m. at the Pat Conroy Literary Center. Limited to 15 participants. (A minimum of five participants is needed for this workshop.) $40/person. Registration fee includes a copy of Idiot Men: Short Stories\, the new collection from instructor Scott Gould (an $18 value). \nLearn more and register at https://patconroyliterarycenter.eventbrite.com \nFollowing the workshop\, at 5:00 p.m.\, Gould will also appear in conversation about Idiot Men with fellow award-winning novelist Mindy Friddle at the Conroy Center. The author conversation is free and open to the public. \nWebsite: Facebook Event Page \nAbout our instructor: \nScott Gould is the author of five books\, including The Hammerhead Chronicles\, winner of the Eric Hoffer Award for Fiction\, and Things That Crash\, Things That Fly\, which won a 2022 Memoir Prize for Books. Other honors include a Next Generation Indie Book Award\, an IPPY Award for Fiction\, the Larry Brown Short Story Award and the S.C. Arts Commission Artist Fellowship in Prose. Gould’s latest book is the story collection\, Idiot Men. \nHis work has appeared in Kenyon Review\, Black Warrior Review\, Pangyrus\, New Ohio Review\, Crazyhorse\, Pithead Chapel\, Vessel\, Garden & Gun\, and New Stories from the South\, among others. He teaches at the S.C. Governor’s School for the Arts & Humanities in Greenville\, S.C. \n\nThis program and others like this would not be possible without your financial help for which\, as always\, Pat Conroy Literary Center gratefully thanks you.
