SUMMARY:FALL WRITING WORKSHOP WITH PETER MOUNTFORD
DESCRIPTION:JOIN US FOR AN ALL-DAY FALL WRITING WORKSHOP WITH PETER MOUNTFORD\nMAKING MEANING IN YOUR PERSONAL ESSAY\nSunday\, November 2\, 2025 | 10AM to 3PM \nPitkin County Library\n120 N Mill St\, Aspen\, CO 81611 \nREGISTER HERE \nThis all-day workshop with award-winning novelist and essayist Peter Mountford runs 10 AM–3 PM\, with a lunch break from 12–1 PM.\nAttendees will learn the most difficult and important skill in personal essay writing: how to make your personal story relevant to a perfect stranger. Hilary Mantel\, on the difficulty of writing about oneself\, said: “If other people are to care about your life\, art must intervene.”    \n“Aboutness” is fundamental to a successful essay\, yet both literary and general-publication editors frequently complain of receiving writers’ essays that don’t seem to be “about” anything. In this workshop\, attendees will figure out how to select a topic\, then focus and refine an essay to arc toward theme and meaning.     \n In the morning\, the workshop will focus on choosing an essay’s seeds. These ideas should be inherently engaging from a story standpoint but also contain focused opportunities for rich thematic meaning. We will generate new writing for a few topics. Attendees will assess different ideas and talk about what each might offer in terms of story and meaning.    \nIn the afternoon\, the workshop will focus on developing one or two ideas further into a publishable work that appeals to readers. Specifically\, we’ll work toward making meaning—how to write/revise toward your essay’s “aboutness.” Attendees will learn how there are several different approaches for seeking and demonstrating meaning\, as we work through ideas generated in class. We’ll also learn secrets to successful essay structure.   \nCome prepared to brainstorm new essay ideas\, bring ones you’ve been mulling over\, or essays you’ve written that just aren’t working. Attendees will look at examples of how other authors have done this\, including Melissa Febos\, and Leslie Jamison. We will look at the first draft vs the published draft of the instructor’s Modern Love essay.  \nAbout the Instructor: \n \nPeter Mountford is the author of A Young Man’s Guide to Late Capitalism (winner of the Washington State Book Award) and The Dismal Science (a New York Times Editor’s Choice)\, as well as the short story collection Detonator. His essays and fiction have appeared in The New York Times (Modern Love)\, The Paris Review\, The Atlantic\, The Sun\, and more. He teaches at the University of Nevada\, Reno at Lake Tahoe’s MFA program and through Mountford Writing.

SUMMARY:AWN Meeting Thursday February 20
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””] \nA very special in-person workshop this Thursday\, the 20th – What Prose Writers Can Learn From Screen Writers \nIn this in-person workshop\, scriptwriter and novelist Scott Lasser will teach you the four main skills prose writers can learn from scriptwriters: structure\, scene writing\, concision\, and dialogue. He will also share how the game is played in Hollywood. Attached are the support materials for the workshop. From Scott:  \n“Here’s a 17-page pdf that we’ll use for reference on the 20th. It’s mostly snippets of scripts and outlines that we’ll use to discuss various points and skills. They don’t need to read it ahead of time\, BUT…if they take a look at the David Mamet memo (pages 7-11)\, they’ll likely find it useful.” \n\nScott Lasser is a scriptwriter\, novelist\, and journalist. He has written pilots for Sony and Fox\, among others. He developed Jackson State for HBO\, a project set in the world of amateur baseball and the opioid epidemic. He’s also written for HBO’s True Detective. Lasser’s first novel (Battle Creek/William Morrow) was optioned by Scott Rudin/Paramount; Lasser wrote an adaption of his fourth novel\, Say Nice Things About Detroit (Norton)\, for Warner Brothers and Steve Carell’s Carousel Productions. His journalism has appeared in the New Yorker\, the New York Times\, and elsewhere. \nConnect With Your Writer Muses & Empower Your Writing \nThursday\, February 20 at Bonfire Coffee from 6:30-8:30 p.m. \nBECOME A MEMBER [/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:AWN: Fairytales with Kim Bussing | Third Thursday in November
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, November 21 at Bonfire Coffee Company (433 Main Street\, Carbondale\, CO 81623) 6:30 – 8:30 p.m. \nKim Bussing will ask AWN members to look at the psychology and craft of fairy tales to sharpen your manuscript\, weave magic into both the fantastic and the mundane\, and overcome roadblocks for captivating stories. \nCRAFT TALK DESCRIPTION \nFairy tales are the most honest forms of storytelling. Through magic and metaphor\, they confront what is otherwise unspeakable. Many of the stories we tell are built off the bones of fairy tales\, from how we imagine characters\, create intrigue\, conjure settings\, and confront what haunts us. Whether you’re writing memoir or science fiction\, a children’s novel or a sweeping multigenerational drama\, the tenets of fairy tales are integral to our approach to stories. This class will look at the psychology and craft of fairy tales to sharpen your manuscript\, weave magic into both the fantastic and the mundane\, and overcome roadblocks for captivating stories. It will both teach elements of craft while providing opportunities to generate new work in your prose genre of choice. \n  \nABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR \nKim Bussing is an author of fairy tales for children and adults. Her first series\, The Princess Swap\, is forthcoming from Penguin Random House beginning in 2025. Her short fiction has won several grants and awards\, and she’s helped tell stories for brands including Hilton\, Marriott\, Audi\, and more. She holds an MFA from the University of Arizona\, where she taught creative writing and was co-editor of Sonora Review. She regularly speaks on the power of storytelling\, leads creative workshops\, and coaches writers and entrepreneurs. \nEmail Mallory Kaufman for more information on becoming a member.

SUMMARY:AWN: 45 Ways to Turn up the Tension with April Henry | Third Thursday October
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, October 17 at Bonfire Coffee (433 Main St Carbondale)\, 6:30-8:30 p.m. \nJoin AWN for 45 Ways to Turn up the Tension: no matter what genre you’re writing\, these 45 powerful and proven techniques will make readers feel like the pages are flying by. \nTaught by April Henry\, the New York Times bestselling author of 29 mysteries and thrillers for teens and adults. \nABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR: \n \nEdgar-award winning and New York Times-bestselling author April Henry knows how to kill you in a two-dozen different ways. She makes up for a peaceful childhood in an intact home by killing off fictional characters. There was one detour on April’s path to destruction:  when she was 12 she sent a short story about a six-foot tall frog who loved peanut butter to noted children’s author Roald Dahl. He liked it so much he showed it to his editor\, who asked if she could publish it in Puffin Post\, an international children’s magazine. By the time April was in her 30s\, she had started writing about hit men\, kidnappers\, and drug dealers. She has published 29 mysteries and thrillers for teens and adults\, with more to come. She is known for meticulously researching her novels to get the details right. \nEmail Mallory Kaufman for more information on becoming a member.

SUMMARY:2024 Fall Writing Workshop with Mary Robinette Kowal (Two Workshops in One)
DESCRIPTION:Sunday\, October 6th\, 9am to 4pm (with a 1-hour lunch break). Mary Robinette Kowal will be teaching two of her most popular topics: \n Hiding Exposition in Plain Sight \nIn this workshop\, we learn how to give our readers all the information they need to know about the setting we created\, without drowning them in information. Together we learn the art of subtly expositing without showing our authorial hand. \nEndings: How to Wrap Things Up  \nVery often\, writers get to the two-thirds mark in a work and bog down\, sometimes abandoning it to move on to something shinier. Why does this happen? It’s a place at which we move from raising questions for the reader to needing to answer them. This change in mode requires a different set of tools than the beginning of a story\, while needing to appear part of a seamless whole. In this workshop\, we’ll look at how to wrap up loose ends\, decide which things we can leave dangling\, and what elements make a strong closing sentence. \nGeneral Admission: $95 | AWN Member: $35 \n \n  \nLearn more about the Aspen Writers Network (AWN) \nand become a member today!  \nABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR\nMary Robinette Kowal is the author of The Spare Man\,The Glamourist Histories series\, Ghost Talkers\, and the Lady Astronaut Universe. She is part of the award-winning podcast Writing Excuses and has received the Astounding Award for Best New Writer\, four Hugo awards\, the Nebula and Locus awards. Her stories appear in Asimov’s\, Uncanny\, and several Year’s Best anthologies.

SUMMARY:Writing Workshop: Let the Writing Make the Rules – with Kate Milliken
DESCRIPTION:Join Aspen Words for a one-day intensive in Pitkin County Library’s Dunaway Community Room (120 N. Mill St. Aspen\, CO) led by author Kate Milliken. \nRegistration for this workshop is now closed\, all available spots have been filled. \nPlease reach out to Mallory.Kaufman@aspeninstitute.org to add your name to the waitlist. \nWORKSHOP DETAILS\nWhen we talk about (and teach) creative writing we often speak in terms of the rules of craft. While it is important to have a knowledge of what has worked time and again to create compelling stories\, in order to write a truly singular story you will need to move beyond convention. Often students of creative writing are so aware of how a story is supposed to be told that they fail to hear the wisdom that is already present in their own writing; its subtle whispers about how it wants to be told. In this one day intensive\, through close readings of unconventional narratives\, generative writing prompts\, and an in-depth discussion of our own projects\, we will deepen our understanding of the voice\, the shape\, and the themes that our work seeks to articulate. Whether you come to our meeting with just an idea of the story you want to tell or you have a full rough draft in your desk\, our time together will embolden you to take the next step—from getting the first pages written to embarking on a needed revision—with a deeper connection to the material and a greater authority\, moving you beyond crafting a story to making it your very own. \nABOUT THE AUTHOR\nKate Milliken is the Iowa Award winning author of the short story collection “If I’d Known You Were Coming” and the novel\, “Kept Animals\,” which was long listed for the 2020 First Novel Prize and hailed by the New York Times Book Review as a novel of “deft insights and gorgeous\, sensual description.” Kate has written television and commercial advertising and taught on behalf of UCLA\, the University of Michigan\, and The Center for Fiction. Her work has appeared in O\, the Oprah Magazine\, the Santa Monica Review\, Zyzzyva\, and Fiction\, among others and her work has been supported by Tin House\, the Vermont Studio Center\, Sewanee Writers Workshop\, and the Ragdale Foundation. Kate is currently a freelance editor and writing coach and she lives with her family in the Midwest.

SUMMARY:Workshop: The Magic of Sudden\, Micro and Flash: Very Short Stories led by Pam Painter
DESCRIPTION:ALL DAY SUNDAY\, OCT. 23 \n \nSunday\, Oct. 23 @ 10:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. | \nIn-Person at Pitkin County Library (120 N Mill St\, Aspen) \nPam will be teaching the workshop in-person.
