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.

Marriage & Relationships from a 20-Something's Perspective

“Some truth: a marriage is a story that is told by two people and teamwork isn’t exactly a natural thing for many of us. I do believe in marriage and I do believe in love, but I also believe that it is unwise to expect anything from anybody. Expiration dates are not only inherent but also necessary borders between life and death.”

Excerpt from Marriage & Relationships from a 20-Something's Perspective, written by Caitlin Stewart Truman.
