Workshop: Revision as Wilding In-Person
Revision as Wilding: A Generative Writing Workshop, led by Sarah Sentilles. This workshop is part of the 2025 To Taste Life Twice seminar.
What if revision wasn’t about taming your words but about setting them free? What if it meant unleashing the wildness of your language and pushing past the boundaries you didn’t even know were there? Join Sarah Sentilles for a transformative, generative writing workshop where revision becomes an act of discovery. Over three hours, we’ll play, experiment, and explore, guided by prompts designed to let your language soar. Bring 5-10 pages of your work-in-progress, and together, we’ll release the deep power of your voice.
