4.9/5 (28343 ratings)

Description:One of the essential differences of the mid-career focused UP National Writers Workshop (UPNWW), which began in 2006, was the inclusion of the poetics essay in its proceedings. Before then, the UPNWW operated like most writers workshop, with the creative work front and center.This traditional set-up of the writers workshop proceeded from the idea that the work must stand by itself, divorced from the author’s intent. Some writers workshops even go as far as obscuring the name of the author, so as not to influence the discussion and analysis of the creative work.But the shift to focus on mid-career writers forced a rethinking of the workshop format, after all, many if not all of the mid-career writers eligible to join the workshop have not only been to other workshops before, they’ve already published a book, and have matured creatively to the point that they no longer write individual pieces, but rather in terms of books and collections. The focus on the individual writer and their poetics in the reformatted UPNWW admits, not only to the impossibility of holding the creative work apart from the writer and their politics, however problematic it might turn out to be, but how essential articulating one’s intent and process is in a creative practice. The poetics essays have become an opportunity for both writer and panelists to reflect not only the individual work, but one’s own practice and creative corpus, thus far.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
