Whether writing about our companion animals or about wild places, portraying nature and non-human animals requires honing our senses and deepening our empathy. In this three-hour workshop, we’ll look at the role of nature and non-human animals in stories and learn how to render both with compassion and authenticity. Through examples and writing prompts, we’ll examine ways you can reveal the natural world in your writing, including establishing setting, doing research, and capturing sensory detail. We’ll also look at how to authentically portray non-human animals in ways that honor their individuality and true selves. This workshop is for all writers who love the natural world and would like to incorporate its wonders into their work.
