This book offers instruction\, inspiration and prompts for writing Climate Fiction (CliFi)\, a subcategory of the literary genre\, Speculative Fiction. CliFi focuses primarily\, but not exclusively\, on the ways that climate change is transforming our world. Explore how plot\, place and character development can make climate change personal. By anticipating and elaborating on the future implications of climate change\, writers of CliFi use knowledge of science and climate to imagine and create apocalyptic or dystopian worlds with the goal of changing how humans think about\, inhabit and interact with our planet. Place your writing at the forefront of efforts to reimagine the message and the messengers of climate change\, taking the issue out of politics and into the realm of the personal. \n  \nEbook and paperback available on Amazon in July. \nShare this:\n Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n Facebook\n \n Share on X (Opens in new window)\n X\n \n Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)\n Tumblr\n \n Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n LinkedIn\n \n Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)\n Pinterest URL:http://archive.gloucesterwriters.org/event/saving-the-world-one-word-at-a-time-reading-and-writers-workshop-2/ LOCATION:GWC\, 126 East Main Street\, Gloucester\, MA\, 01930\, United States CATEGORIES:Classes,Events,Readings END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Halifax:20150826T193000 DTEND;TZID=America/Halifax:20150826T210000 DTSTAMP:20260427T031219 CREATED:20150727T134053Z LAST-MODIFIED:20150727T134053Z UID:5662-1440617400-1440622800@archive.gloucesterwriters.org SUMMARY:Michael Basinski DESCRIPTION:Michael Basinski is an American text\, visual and sound poet.

This book offers instruction\, inspiration and prompts for externalizing your inner apocalypse. Using creative writing\, readers are encouraged to make meaning of their experiences by discovering\, emphasizing and illuminating changed perspectives. Every character and every story we write is autobiographical. Our writing can transform us by offering opportunities to explore\, examine\, and understand outcomes from our lives\, and to imagine alternatives. We can evoke a sense of justice and peace\, not by changing outcomes (usually it’s too late for that)\, but by changing perspective. Apocalyptic stories can inspire change\, and even hope. \nEbook available on Amazon\, paperback available soon. \n  \n  \n  \nShare this:\n Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n Facebook\n \n Share on X (Opens in new window)\n X\n \n Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)\n Tumblr\n \n Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n LinkedIn\n \n Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)\n Pinterest URL:http://archive.gloucesterwriters.org/event/love-and-apocalypse-externalize-your-inner-apocalypse-reading-and-writers-workshop/ LOCATION:GWC\, 126 East Main Street\, Gloucester\, MA\, 01930\, United States CATEGORIES:Classes,Events,Readings ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:http://archive.gloucesterwriters.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/Screen-Shot-2015-07-15-at-6.44.21-AM.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Halifax:20150807T193000 DTEND;TZID=America/Halifax:20150807T213000 DTSTAMP:20260427T031219 CREATED:20150611T175048Z LAST-MODIFIED:20150611T175048Z UID:5505-1438975800-1438983000@archive.gloucesterwriters.org SUMMARY:Fish Tales: Storytellers Choice - Anything Goes DESCRIPTION:No theme for this one.  You decide. \nShare this:\n Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n Facebook\n \n Share on X (Opens in new window)\n X\n \n Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)\n Tumblr\n \n Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n LinkedIn\n \n Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)\n Pinterest URL:http://archive.gloucesterwriters.org/event/fish-tales-waves/ LOCATION:Cultural Center at Rocky Neck\, 6 Wonson Street\, Gloucester\, United States CATEGORIES:Events,Readings ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:http://archive.gloucesterwriters.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Screen-Shot-2014-09-11-at-10.12.34-AM.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Halifax:20150805T193000 DTEND;TZID=America/Halifax:20150805T213000 DTSTAMP:20260427T031219 CREATED:20150610T190320Z LAST-MODIFIED:20150610T190320Z UID:5513-1438803000-1438810200@archive.gloucesterwriters.org SUMMARY:Ron Silliman: A Reading & Conversation on Post-Anthropocene Poetics DESCRIPTION:Share this:\n Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n Facebook\n \n Share on X (Opens in new window)\n X\n \n Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)\n Tumblr\n \n Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n LinkedIn\n \n Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)\n Pinterest URL:http://archive.gloucesterwriters.org/event/ron-silliman-a-reading-conversation-on-post-anthropocene-poetics/ CATEGORIES:Events,Readings ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:http://archive.gloucesterwriters.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/Silliman-98-c-Jeff-Hurwitz-2.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Halifax:20150803T193000 DTEND;TZID=America/Halifax:20150803T210000 DTSTAMP:20260427T031219 CREATED:20150122T003456Z LAST-MODIFIED:20150122T003456Z UID:4994-1438630200-1438635600@archive.gloucesterwriters.org SUMMARY:Open Mic DESCRIPTION: Special Venue!\nThis month’s Open Mic\nwill be held at the\nEastern Point Lit House\nat 261 Main Street.\n \nShare this:\n Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n Facebook\n \n Share on X (Opens in new window)\n X\n \n Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)\n Tumblr\n \n Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n LinkedIn\n \n Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)\n Pinterest URL:http://archive.gloucesterwriters.org/event/open-mic-7-2015-08-03/ LOCATION:Eastern Point Lit House\, 261 Main Street\, Gloucester\, 01930 CATEGORIES:Events,Readings ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:http://archive.gloucesterwriters.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/openmicgeneral.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Halifax:20150729T193000 DTEND;TZID=America/Halifax:20150729T210000 DTSTAMP:20260427T031219 CREATED:20150521T004340Z LAST-MODIFIED:20150521T004340Z UID:5416-1438198200-1438203600@archive.gloucesterwriters.org SUMMARY:Moira Linehan and Mary Pinard DESCRIPTION:Share this:\n Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n Facebook\n \n Share on X (Opens in new window)\n X\n \n Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)\n Tumblr\n \n Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n LinkedIn\n \n Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)\n Pinterest URL:http://archive.gloucesterwriters.org/event/moira-linehan-and-mary-pinard/ CATEGORIES:Events,Readings ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:http://archive.gloucesterwriters.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/Screen-Shot-2015-06-11-at-8.17.48-PM.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Halifax:20150722T193000 DTEND;TZID=America/Halifax:20150722T210000 DTSTAMP:20260427T031219 CREATED:20150424T191305Z LAST-MODIFIED:20150424T191305Z UID:5324-1437593400-1437598800@archive.gloucesterwriters.org SUMMARY:Steve Luttrell and P.D.
