The Long Faulkner Summer: Workshop #1

Instructor: K Hank Jost
Dates: June 27-Aug 22 (No Class July 4)

SIGN UP HERE

Saturdays 10:30am-1pm

Capacity: 15 Students

…it came simply from the words themselves, the ringing sound of the phrase…


Deep study of a single author’s work is one of the best ways to focus and improve one’s craft—and William Faulkner’s oeuvre is among the richest in the English language. Join us for a generative author study, where we will unpack the singular genius of Faulkner’s approach, attitude, and method, submerging ourselves in the technical virtuosity of America’s greatest novelist.


In this eight-week workshop, students will revitalize their sense of the possibilities of fiction through deep reading Faulkner’s four greatest achievements—As I Lay Dying, The Sound and The Fury, Absalom! Absalom!, and The Hamlet—analyzing their techniques and generating new ideas about compositional methods via group discussion. Supplemented by interviews, speeches, and lectures given by the author, students will extract for themselves a timeless, personal, and forever useful methodology.


Over the course of the eight weeks, students will generate four pieces of short fiction and have the opportunity to present their work to the class for feedback…

Storage by Samuel Budin: A Launch Party

Storage by Samuel Budin: A Launch Party

Join us for the launch of Tiny Cutlery's newest title "STORAGE" by Samuel Budin.


"STORAGE" is a collection of poetry and original film photography by the poet and musician Samuel Budin. The collection chronicles the author’s experience in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, surviving off catsitting gigs for folks that fled the city. Storage becomes more than a container, and the word forms the title of a longform poem that interweaves sporadically throughout the collection, always reminding you to pickup right where you left off.

As always, preorders of the book include a special discount, as well as a bonus item: a bespoke broadsheet of Budin's longform poem printed by Tiny Cutlery. PREORDERS AVAILABLE on tinycutlery.com/shop.
