Disquiet International Literary Program in Lisbon, Portugal

Chris will join the faculty of the Disquiet International Literary Program in Lisbon, Portugal next summer to teach the Writing the Luso Experience workshop.

Writing the Luso Experience is a multi-genre workshop that explores the global reach of the Luso diaspora, investigating how the past informs the present, how our heritage shapes our worldview, and how the creative possibilities of classic and contemporary Lusophone literature can inspire us to break boundaries in our own work. Through group discussions, manuscript critiques and craft exercises, we will discover new ways of thinking about literature, writing and our lives.

Joining Chris will be visiting writer Jarita Davis.
