To Meander, Spiral, Explode

This generative class will explore the narrative structures of meandering, spiraling, and exploding by paying homage to Meander, Spiral, Explode by Jane Alison (no need to read/have). We'll employ divinatory poetics for prompts to get us started and to keep going; specifically, the instructor will use the art of bibliomancy, turning to The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows by John Koenig as the Muse (also no need to read/have). Come with an open mind! You might start something new or dive deeper into a work-in-progress. There’s no telling if you'll meander, spiral, or fracture, but you will come away with more knowledge about these structures.
