Whether you are a Writing major or are simply deeply interested in writing, you can find an informal community of Pitt writers at the Writers' Café. Make contacts with other writers, try your hand at different genres, let guided freewriting exercises jumpstart your process, and share feedback on works-in-progress with peers from all over campus. In this session: Through a series of prompts, participants will explore ways to write the lived experience evocatively and tangibly. Prompts will be complemented by discussion on how writing the bodymind can be an act of resistance against imposed notions of "appropriate" or idealized ways of being.
