Apply for the speculative fiction work/shop

The next gathering for the speculative fiction work/shop will take place Sep 16–Oct 21, 2026. The application below is designed to be brief and informal, and to provide just enough information for me to design a balanced cohort who will spend productive time in community with one another. It should take no more than 20 minutes to complete.

In order to be considered, applicants must agree to abide by the code of conduct.

Applications are due before 12:00 PM EDT (UTC-4) on Thursday, July 30, 2026. Everyone who applies will hear from me the following week. If you have any questions about the application process, or the work/shop itself, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
