Women in Theatre Conference
I'm sharing an excerpt from my new book, Damaged Like Me, as part of the "campfire" at this year's conference. I know we can't make s'mores, but I sort of want someone to have open flame for this event. Is that so wrong?

Corporeal Writing: Memoir Workshop, 3-5pm PST
This workshop had a long waitlist when we did it in October, so we're doing it again in August!
Yes, these are two hour meetings via Zoom, a week apart for a month. We're going to make things, y'all. We're going to focus on process and understanding how we frame what has happened to us in our lives, how we can use writing as a method of inquiry in order to access and enhance memory. We will spend no time polishing writing (in fact, I hope we write some things we'll never want to share with anyone). Register for this workshop here.

Hugo House: Making Meaning in Memoir, 1:10-4:10 PST
I think lots of places in Seattle are very cool, but yeah, Hugo House for sure. It's a 3 hour workshop on Making Meaning: Turning Memories into Memoir. This'll be hugely generative—come. I'm promising at least twelve ways to connect memory, experience, culture and meaning.

Accessible Yoga Conference
I'll be part of a panel regarding the evolution of fat acceptance and body positivity. We'll discuss access and making space for all bodies—especially marginalized ones. Amber Karnes will be facilitating, so that will make it a good discussion for sure. This will be my second Accessible Yoga Conference and they really are worthwhile...

Djerassi Writing Residency
I'm thrilled to return to Djerassi, where I did a major edit of The Daddies and finished a first draft of Fat, Pretty, and Soon to be Old, back in 2011. It's a beautiful, art-filled wilderness. (I mean, just look at the website.) I'm so lucky to return for a second time.

"The balance between objectivity and intimate analysis certainly gives Dark an edge and has made her a force to be reckoned with on every level..." — Evening Echo (Cork, Ireland) "Dark's performance was so packed with information, humor, and poetry... One thing is certain: her show is a must-see!" — The Scribe (Colorado Springs, CO) |
