SUMMARY:Writing Place: Landscape\, People\, and Story with Linda Buckmaster
DESCRIPTION:Registration is required.\n\n[T]he world has called us\, in the 
 ultimate manner of its existence\, and we respond.  - Elizabeth 
 Dodd\n\n\nWriting about a special place involves working with the elements 
 that make it unique while also honoring the things it has in common with 
 other places and times. This may include layers of history\, the natural 
 world\, culture\, and personal story to bring us to the present. Writers 
 might be advocates\, critics\, or lovers of a place. It may be a place from 
 the past\, the future\, or this moment. This workshop is open to writers of 
 all levels and suitable for writers of poetry\, prose\, or anything in 
 between including visual imagery. Through exploration\, writing exercises\, 
 the work of other authors\, and discussion\, participants experiment with 
 words to explore a place that calls to them.\n\nLinda Buckmaster has lived 
 within a block of the Atlantic most of her life\, growing up in Space Coast 
 Florida and living in midcoast Maine for fifty years. She has an MFA from 
 the University of Southern Maine\, and her poetry\, essays\, and fiction 
 have appeared in over forty journals. She taught in the University of Maine 
 System for two decades and now offers community-based workshops. Two of her 
 pieces have been listed as Notable Essays in Best American Essays 2013 and 
 2020: her memoir\, Space Heart. A Memoir in Stages\, was published by 
 Burrow Press in 2018. Her latest hybrid\, Elemental: A Miscellany of Salt 
 Cod and Islands (Huntress Press 2022)\, was a Finalist in the Maine 
 Literary Awards.\n\nLinda is currently showing her traveling literary 
 exhibit\, “Of Cod and Communities\,” at libraries and town halls around 
 Maine. \n\nVisit Linda's website to learn more about her and her work.
