BEHIND THIS ROAR, A DOOR: A (Mis) Translation Workshop for (Non) Translators Led by Kristen Renee Miller
Saturday, April 4 at 12:00 p.m. - Riverside Theatre
CAPACITY: 20
What makes a poem in translation? Are human translators still needed in the age of auto-translate technology? Experiment with sound and translation—and craft a sonic poem of your own—in this nontraditional workshop for non-translators and mono-linguists.
RECOMMENDATIONS: Please bring your favorite notebook and a pen.

READERS WRITE: A Generative Workshop with The Sun Magazine Led by Assistant Editor Derek Askey
Saturday, April 4 at 12:00 p.m. - Iowa Writers' House
CAPACITY: 25
Readers Write is a recurring feature of The Sun in which readers candidly discuss their experiences, responding to a wide array of broad topics: “Divorce,” “The Refrigerator,” “First Impressions,” and so on. Writing style isn’t as important as thoughtfulness and sincerity. In this workshop, Sun staff will discuss the importance of the section to the magazine’s history, offer writing prompts, and share advice for being published. Attendees will write during the workshop and, if desired, share their work.
RECOMMENDATIONS: Please bring your favorite notebook and a pen.
