SUMMARY:WEBINAR | Nature Writing Reimagined: Cultivating Observation & Connection in Every Genre
DESCRIPTION:Nature writing is often treated as a genre of its own\, but the natural world belongs in every story\, essay\, or poem. Move beyond viewing nature as a backdrop\, and weave it meaningfully into your writing.\n\n\n\nFor All GenresIncluded in the upcoming Season Pass \n\n\n\nDiscover what happens when we stop treating nature as scenery and begin to recognize it as an active presence in our narratives\, woven into every story we tell. Through a selection of historical and contemporary readings\, we’ll look at the many ways writers have engaged with the living world and consider how those approaches can enrich our own work. \n\n\n\nTogether\, we’ll explore the idea of de-othering nature and its implications for our writing\, from setting and imagery to metaphor\, character\, and point of view. Through lecture\, close reading\, and a generative writing exercise\, you’ll experiment with new ways of bringing the natural world onto the page—not simply as background\, but as a vital part of the work itself. \n\n\n\nWhether you write fiction\, nonfiction\, or poetry\, you’ll leave with practical techniques for creating more vivid and immersive landscapes\, a deeper awareness of the relationships between people and place\, and fresh inspiration for your creative practice. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn this webinar\, you will:\n\n\n\n\nEXPLORE how writers across time have represented the natural world\, from historical texts to contemporary voices reshaping the genre\n\n\n\nREIMAGINE nature’s role in your work and how de-othering the environment can transform your imagery\, figurative language\, and sense of place\n\n\n\nSTRENGTHEN your craft with tools for creating rich\, memorable landscapes \n\n\n\nINTEGRATE environmental awareness into your creative practices\n\n\n\n\nThis webinar is ideal for writers at any level who… \n\n\n\n\nstruggle with settings and world-building\n\n\n\nwant to explore a new way of writing from a new point of view \n\n\n\nwrite about the natural world but don’t want to be pigeonholed as “nature writers”\n\n\n\nare garden-obsessed\, dirt-under-the-fingernails\, seed-catalog-collecting\, hiking-boot-wearing aficionados who wonder what else there is to write about\n\n\n\n\nClosed captioning is available. ✔All registrants receive the recording. ✔ \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nABOUT YOUR PRESENTER\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA high-energy teacher noted for deep historical dives and technical side quests that always bring more understanding\, Megan Baxter has won numerous national awards\, including a Pushcart Prize.
