Saturday, September 5, 2020 Regimen Writing (Youth) Categories: Official JB Events Timelines: 3b: Past Workshops (Unseen Archive), 4: Dana Venerable Workshops & Events
Inspired by “how-to” guides from cosmetology (i.e. hair, make-up, nails, skin-care routines / tutorials), vintage dance instruction manuals, exercise and stretching videos, live and recorded tarot readings, recipes and other forms of instructional writing, this workshop explores embodied daily, weekly, and monthly habits, thoughts, and processes through our regimens. Writers will analyze their own regimens closely and write them out in as much detail as possible, recording steps from memory.
