Whether you realize it or not, the lilt of your ancestors and your culture permeate your creativity, either in stories passed down or in your daily living; in phrases and expressions, in the way you walk or move your hands. In this session, through writing exercises, let your culture sway and punctuate your writing. Tilt your ear to it. Lean into it. Write it.
