Summer Sweat Series: Queer Erotica Writing Workshop

BGSQD and Hive Mind Books invite writers of all levels and backgrounds to join author Christian Pan in a Queer Erotica Writing Workshop!
REGISTER FOR THIS EVENT
Do you have fantasies, desires, an over-active imagination? Have you ever wanted to put some of that into a short story? Do you like reading erotica, and ever thought, “Yeah, I could do that!” Do you feel like your particular kind of YUM is not showing up in the LGBTQIA+ lit out there?
Then grab pen & paper (or a laptop), come to the Bureau, and let's sweat it out onto the page.
Over the course of 5 in-person sessions, this workshop will provide prompts, tools, readings, and discussion of how each of us can bring our erotic story to life. We’ll talk character, dialogue, place, and ways to activate the senses. We’ll read excerpts from other people's work, and welcome you to submit excerpts to be workshopped by the class. We will try to get you as close as possible to finishing a draft of that story by the end of the workshop.
Participants will also be invited to read an excerpt from their work to invited guests at the Bureau during a special event in September.
Sound like fun? Cost is only $15 per session, or $50 for all 5 if you pay in advance. This fee will go to support the bookstore as well as to pay Christian for his time.
Class size is capped at 15.
