Writers Lunch: Ask an Editor--#Own Voices
By Houston Independent Authors
Online event
Overview
Should your aliens be empathetic? Should Bigfoot have a soul? How do you make superintelligent cephalopods sympathetic?
#OwnVoices is a movement pushing for stories about a marginalized experience to be told by an author who shares that experience. Does that mean you can’t write characters or stories outside your lived experience? If you are writing a marginalized character, how can you ensure that you’re doing so authentically and respectfully? What’s the difference between writing diverse characters and writing a story that isn’t yours to tell? Join us for this month’s Ask an Editor, to discuss the OwnVoices movement.
