Storying a Bright Future – Workshop

October 20 @ 11:00 am - 12:00 pm EDT

Join BrightFlame to vision our way to just, regenerative futures. Cognitive science shows we are wired for stories: it’s how we make sense of and navigate the world; it’s how we change the world. In this experiential workshop we’ll journey into that future, dive into details, and make visceral memories. We’ll share these futures to widen our views of what is possible. Applicable for writers and non-writers to tilt towards hope and action. Hope you’ll join us! You might like to bring something to write and draw on and with.

 

BrightFlame (she/they) writes, teaches, and makes magic towards a just, regenerative world. In her debut novel The Working, a modern coven must thwart a looming eco-cataclysm and find the key to the bright future we need. Her short fiction is featured in Solarpunk Creatures, Bioluminescent, and Solarpunk Magazine. She’s known for her teaching in the worldwide pagan community and co-founded the Center for Sustainable Futures at Columbia University that features her workshops and nonfiction. She’s a member of the Climate Fiction Writers League, Brooklyn Speculative Fiction Writers, and SFWA. She lives on Lenape territory (Turtle Island/US) with a human, a forest, a labyrinth, the Fey, bees, turtles, fungi, rocks, and many other nonhumans. https://brightflame.com
