About this plan
If you like writing short stories, this plan in Bogotá is for you. Paréntesis: Short Story Writing Lab is a hands-on session where you experiment with narrative voice and see how a story changes depending on who tells it.
During the meeting you work with short readings and writing exercises that put first, second, and third person to the test. You play with protagonist narrators, witnesses, and voices that know more or less than they say. You watch the perspective shift a character, change what the reader knows, and reshape the whole meaning of a story.
The meeting takes place at the Gabriel García Márquez Public Library, Tunal branch, a good spot to read, write, and share with other people who care about literature.
