First Saturday Writing Workshop / "Authority and Humility"
Instructor: Marilyn McEntyre, PhD
The slightly paradoxical task of maintaining real humility while also finding ways to write with authority can raise deep questions about how we invite the Spirit to speak through us, work with us, and give us confidence, and how we understand and use our gifts. In this session we'll look at how writing in an environment of pervasive commodification and not a little pretension poses a vigorous challenge to the values we hope to maintain as human beings who are hoping to make our writing humane.
Each online workshop in this series will address a particular topic in writing, especially for those interested in personal essays and/or responses to public life. We will talk about language, faith, form, and what a lively, committed writing life entails.
