SUMMARY:AWP Conference: "What Exactly Do You Do?: Jobs as Guides into Our Characters' Worlds"
DESCRIPTION:In Other People’s Trades\, Primo Levi describes his “vagabond and dilettantish curiosity” about jobs other than his own. This panel features writers who have thought deeply about what their characters do for work—at times fulfilling\, at times dangerous\, occasionally invented\, and usually calling for arcane knowledge\, skills\, and habits of mind. From sponge diver to film professor\, physicist to umbrologist\, our characters’ professions afford us uncanny access into their inner and outer worlds. With Tim Horvath\, Sequoia Nagamatsu\, and Joy Baglio. \nRoom 2505AB\, Kansas City Convention Center\, Level 2 \n

SUMMARY:AWP Conference: "East Coast\, West Coast\, Best Coast: Writing the Midwest"
DESCRIPTION:“If you opened me up\, you’d find Ohio\,” writes Maggie Smith. Writers from all coasts wrestle with the question of how to write place\, but it’s especially charged in the Midwest\, where our forests and lakes\, our asphalt and industry are so often called fly-over country. How can stories dig deeper into the truth of this place and its people? Whether we’ve been here our whole lives\, left and returned\, or never want to go back\, the Midwest lives in the body\, not in our heads but our bones. \nRoom 2505AB\, Kansas City Convention Center\, Level 2

SUMMARY:The Mystery of Writing Crime Novels  (Ubud Writers and Readers Festival event)
DESCRIPTION:Tracey Lien is the author of the debut novel All That’s Left Unsaid\, which investigates the Vietnamese Australian enclave of Cabramatta in the 1990s and explores the emotional complexity of Vietnamese refugee and Asian Australian experiences. I Have Some Questions for You is a literary murder mystery by Rebecca Makkai\, set in an élite boarding school\, which deconstructs the tropes of the genre. Megan Nolan’s new novel\, Ordinary Human Failings\, is a heart-breaking\, unflinching\, compulsive tale that blends an unsolved murder with family history\, police procedure\, and romantic frustration. Jill Dawson writes crime novels and skillfully exposes class and misogyny and the part they play in determining women’s lives—and often preventable deaths. These authors will speak about the process of creating a rich storyline and how they weave social commentary into their narratives. \nTracey Lien\, penulis dengan novel perdananya All That’s Left Unsaid\, menyelami kantong komunitas Vietnam-Australia di Cabramatta pada tahun 1990an\, menjelajahi kerumitan suasana batin para pengungsi Vietnam\, dan pengalaman hidup orang Asia-Australia. I Have Some Questions for You oleh Rebecca Makkai adalah kisah misteri pembunuhan berlatar sebuah sekolah asrama elit\, membongkar batasan dan rumusan terkait genre. Novel terbaru Megan Nolan\, Ordinary Human Failings\, adalah sebuah kisah mengharukan\, tanpa basa-basi dan menggugah yang menggabungkan misteri pembunuhan dengan sejarah keluarga\, cara polisi bekerja\, dan tekanan romantik. Para penulis ini akan membahas proses meramu alur cerita yang kaya sembari merajut kritik sosial ke dalam penuturan kisah mereka tentang bagaimana tiap pribadi manusia membentuk identitas dan sejarah pribadi mereka. Jill Dawson menulis novel-novel kriminal dan dengan terampil mengekspos bias kelas dan misogini\, juga peranan mereka dalam menentukan nasib perempuan – juga\, seringkali\, kematian yang seharusnya dapat terhindarkan. Penulis-penulis ini akan bercerita tentang proses menciptakan alur cerita yang kaya dan bagaimana mereka menyelipkan komentar sosial ke dalam penuturan mereka. \nValley Stage @Taman Baca.
