CAP 15
“Food is not rational. Food is culture, habit, craving and identity.” – Jonathan Safran Foer
In this generative workshop, we’ll explore techniques for enriching your worldbuilding through the sensory details of taste. We’ll consider how food can unlock characters, establish settings, and be used to indicate change and conflict. Through short reading and writing exercises, we’ll learn how an imaginative landscape of flavor, taste, and cuisines can serve the speculative fiction genres. Come hungry and ready to write!
This workshop is suitable for all writing levels.
