Topic
Craft Talk: On Writing and Vulnerability with Lisa Selin Davis
Date & Time

Selected Sessions:

Oct 26, 2020 11:00 PM

Description
Author, essayist and novelist Lisa Selin Davis will talk about writing and vulnerability, especially in the age of culture wars and cancellation. The more personal our stories are, the more universal. But how do we share our most intimate selves while still protecting ourselves? And protecting those we write about? How do we know what to reveal and what to keep close to our chests? What’s the role of CYA—covering your ass—in personal writing? Is vulnerability really necessary to be effective or brave or authentic? And what do we do when we make mistakes, especially publicly (and is anything not public anymore)?  This talk is cousin to Davis’s Write Your Heart Out: Personal Essay Workshop at Paragraph in November.
