DESCRIPTION:Facilitated by author and teacher Rick Holinger\, this worksho
 p welcomes writers of all abilities and genres. Topic: Are you in your nar
 rator?.\nhttps://geneva.libnet.info/event/16978210
X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>Discussion topic this month: How much of y
 ou is in your narrator? In a recent poetry group\, a member forbade anyone
  from even thinking that the narrator of a poem could be the poet herself 
 (even though Whitman\, in <em>Song of Myself</em>\, identifies his age whe
 n starting the poem)\, suggesting the speaker must be a persona. How much 
 of you is in your narrator\, first\, second\, or third person? Do you try 
 to distance yourself from your narrator\, or engage your feelings and even
  your lifestyle and/or that which most personally affects you? When do you
  make your choice in the creative process\, and have you ever switched mid
 stream?</p>\n<p>The Night Writers Workshop discusses various topics within
  writing and provides a welcoming environment for peer feedback. The progr
 am is organized into two sections: critique of submitted manuscripts and d
 iscussion of writing topics. For more information on submitting a manuscri
 pt\, please visit&nbsp\;<span style="color: #00a3b2\;"><span style="text-d
