Teen Cafe – Flash Fiction

Monday, November 4, 2024 @ 6:00 pm - 7:30 pm EST

Teens in grades 6-12 invited to the Board Room for a weekly activity, conversation and snacks!

No need to register; just stop by between 6-7:30.

This week we’ll be having a flash fiction workshop, led by Robin Gow (it/fae/he & él y elle). Whether you’ve been writing for years or are just getting started, we all carry so many stories we still want to tell but so often many of us have our stories hidden or erased, especially if we’re marginalized people. You deserve to take up space and share your creativity and voice. In the first part of this program, we’ll do a “Flash Fiction / Non-fiction” workshop. Bring something to write with. It can be a notebook, your smartphone, a laptop, whatever you like to use to write!

Robin Gow (it/fae/he & él y elle) is a poet, educator, and witch. It grew up in rural Pennsylvania and lives with his queer family on unceded Lenape land also called Allentown Pennsylvania.

Awarded the Jerry Cain and Scott James Creative Writing Fellow, Gow earned faer MFA in Creative Writing from Adelphi University where fae also taught as a professor of English.

He is an autistic bisexual genderqueer person passionate about queer and disability justice.

This program is sponsored by the Friends of William Jeanes Memorial Library.
