I like this place and could willingly waste my time in it *
— a fiction / non-fiction freewrite event with Kate Copeland —

English grammar rules that place goes before time, via literature we may travel any place any time. Join me on a fiction / non-fiction tour, where we will look at language, art and perception through the eyes of time & place!
Linguistic ideas re temporal & spatial deixis, metaphors and cultural communication will spark your own ‘place in time’ writings. Fictionally speaking, you will be prompted by art, architecture, and by Patti Smith’s substacks, Jami Attenberg’s Writing myself home and LaTonya Yvette’s Stand in my window [a.o].

At the end of the workshop, you will receive a ‘muse document’ with all sorts of extra information. Joy Harjo states that "The world begins at a kitchen table […] So it has been since creation, and it will go on"... So, let’s sit down and write timelessly...hope to see you soon!

* From: As You Like It, by W. Shakespeare (1623)
