DESCRIPTION:What makes writing sound like someone? A distinctive voice that
  reaches you? It can emerge from surprisingly small-seeming choices\, whic
 h we'll explore: rhythm\, syntax\, vocabulary\, perspective\; you can also
  find it in the things a writer habitually or intentionally leaves unsaid.
  In this workshop\, we’ll look at how writers construct voices and perso
 nas\, and experiment with imitation\, disguise\, exaggeration and literary
  ventriloquism to see how much a voice can change before it stops feeling 
 like the same person. We’ll also consider what happens to our ideas abou
 t voice and authenticity when machines can convincingly reproduce some of 
 these signals. What\, if anything\, makes a voice feel genuinely one’s o
 wn?\n\nCheck before you go: https://vpl.bibliocommons.com/events/6abeaea20
