Author and professor Ronald Sukenick coined the phrase that’s the title of this webinar. Do you know who’s using your imagination? For most of us, it’s the entire mediated world—every TV show you see, book you read, joke you hear, or game you play. As writers we need to eschew the clichés sneaking into our work from these influences .
In this one-shot workshop, we develop a method to find our truly real ideas and seize our imaginations back from the rest of creation. Critically acclaimed novelist, short story author and anthologist, Nick Mamatas is your instructor.
