“Cinema of the Mind” — Flash Fiction Through the Camera’s Lens

Pulitzer Prize-winning author and teacher Robert Olen Butler teaches a moment-by-moment method of writing fiction that shares many similarities with the medium of film. We will learn how to take two of the most important elements of all fiction—desire and emotion—and create compelling flash fiction and short stories using Butler’s “Cinema of the Mind.” We will practice with such flash forms as Triptychs and numbered list flashes since they work well with brief, focused scenes.

“Cinema of the Mind” — Flash Fiction Through the Camera’s Lens. Teens & Adults. All experience levels welcome. Saturday, March 7, 9:00 a.m.-noon, St. John’s Episcopal Church,  323 Wick Ave. Course fee: $15 (collected at workshop). Need-based scholarships are available. Registration deadline March 1.

Gene Brode is a short fiction writer and fire alarm technician. He’s an avid reader and long time blogger who has been writing fiction since his days at GMU where he studied Spanish language and literature in the mid 90s. He is the founding editor of TransfiguredLit.wordpress.com
