Then this workshop is for you!  \nLocal director and writer David Kenworthy will be leading a workshop for the WCWF to create an original play or screenplay on Tuesday\, April 1st.

In 2002\, David moved west to work at the Cabaret Dinner Theatre\, where he put down roots by creating his two favorite productions\, his sons William and Alexander.  \nHe has appeared in over 90 productions\, including The Scarecrow in Wizard of Oz\, Billy Flynn in Chicago\, Epstein in Biloxi Blues\, and Hysterium in A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum. After the Cabaret closed in 2010\, he became the artistic director for the Lost Theatre Troupe\, producing several shows for the Museums of West at the Avalon Theatre.

SUMMARY:May Writer's Night - The Plot Thickens:  Writing\, Teaching\, and Publishing Mystery Fiction with Lyn Fraser
DESCRIPTION:The May Writer’s Night session will focus on mystery fiction but will also include a broader discussion of the importance of perseverance and variety\, which impact all of us who write and publish. My own publications include short mystery stories\, the most recent of which began as a novel-in-a-month; it has taken me four years to turn this work into a publishable story. I have been greatly fortunate to be self-supporting as a writer in part because my work includes a Pearson textbook that seems totally unrelated to mystery fiction\, but I believe it fundamentally relies on the same kind of creative energy. I look forward with considerable enthusiasm to your comments\, questions\, and perspectives about these issues. \n  \nSpeaker Bio\n \nLyn Fraser teaches a course in Crime Fiction for New Dimensions and has also been a faculty member at Texas A&M University and Colorado Mesa University. Her publications include a mystery novel (DEBITS AND CREDITS)\, two books on the psalms\, a business textbook (Pearson\, 12th edition 2023)\, short fiction in the AMERICAN LITERARY REVIEW\, the MID-AMERICAN REVIEW\, MYSTERICAL-E\, and two stories in anthologies published by the Murderous Ink Press (“Cosy Nostra” and “Chicka-Chicka Boomba”). An avid reader of mysteries\, Lyn started with Nancy Drew when she was nine years old and has never stopped the clock. \n  \nAll Writer’s Nights are the first Tuesday of the month at the Art Center in Grand Junction. \nCheck out our Events section to see what’s coming up!

SUMMARY:June Writer’s Night - ChatGPT as a Tool for Writers: An Honest Conversation and Workshop with Kate Beagle
DESCRIPTION:In this era of rapidly developing artificial intelligence\, creatives across the world are sounding the alarm. Screenwriters\, copywriters\, journalists\, poets\, and novelists are all watching a familiar story unfold: a world that already undervalues their labor is racing to replace it with something cheaper\, faster\, and altogether less human. \nLike so many technological shifts before it\, the ringing of the AI bell cannot be unrung. That leaves those of us doing the deeply human work of writing with a choice: resist or adapt. \nYet\, perhaps\, there is a third path that will allow us to engage with this new technology critically and creatively. \nJoin us for an honest\, writer-centered conversation about ChatGPT as an instrument we may choose to use with care\, to fine-tune our own unique vision\, rather than as a replacement for the creative process. \nTogether\, let us explore what this technology can do: spark ideas\, assist with structure\, untangle messy drafts\, and provide invaluable (if somewhat dubious) research assistance. And we’ll discuss just as candidly what ChatGPT and similar AI assistants cannot do: capture lived experience\, create emotional truth\, or tell your unique and authentic story. \n  \nSpeaker Bio\nKate Beagle is a Grand Junction native\, small business owner\, and lifelong creative. As the owner\, bookkeeper\, and office manager of HBJ’s Your Way Grooming\, she spends her days caring for the community’s beloved four-legged companions. But at heart\, Kate has always been a storyteller. A passionate reader\, writer\, and world-builder\, she tentatively describes herself as a speculative fiction author and proudly serves as Treasurer of the Western Colorado Writers’ Forum\, where she’s eager to connect with other lovers of “weird fiction” across the Grand Valley. \nKate’s experience with artificial intelligence—like many of us at the dawn of this new technological era—has been largely self-guided. She’s explored ChatGPT as a creative tool in her own writing practice and is now excited to open a broader\, deeper conversation among her fellow writers about what this technology might mean in a world that too often seeks to turn creativity into a commodity.
