Why write? Is writing making?

What is telling? What is showing?

What are clichés in writing, and how do I subvert them?

Are artists' writings taken seriously?

How do I know when to stop writing?

How do I start writing?


Making the Written Word will investigate and encourage the use of writing as a relevant outlet of expression at all stages of artists’ and designers’ studio practice. Each of the four sessions will aim to answer specific questions through readings, writing exercises, and discussion. This blog is a forum for the discussion generated and a place to leave references for each other.
