UPCOMING EVENTS
ONLINE WRITING CLASSES
In this 6-week class, we will generate short story ideas and create one complete first draft of a story. Step 1 will be drafting new material from in-class prompts. Step 2 will be sharing and receiving both partner and instructor feedback, and Step 3 you will learn about the revision process and make a plan to continue working on the draft once the class is finished.
Each week we will read a visceral short story from authors like C Pam Zhang, Zadie Smith, and Denis Johnson, discussing how the style used in each packs the most punch. We will do in-class writing prompts so we can practice channeling other voices, leaning into the absurd, and blurring the lines between reality and altered states..
Red Light Lit Presents: Josiah Flores Record Release Party
Join us in celebrating the release of Doin’ Fine — the new album from Chicano singer-songwriter Josiah Flores. A part-time poet turned melodic storyteller, Flores puts music to the parts of life most people tend to hide from. Doin’ Fine, out now on Speakeasy Studios SF, is a gritty, heartfelt ride through folk, outlaw country, and honky tonk.
Live performances by:
Noelle and the Deserters
Josiah Flores
Andrés Miguel Cervantes
