SUMMARY:Reimagining the Asian American Immigrant Narrative
DESCRIPTION:Join novelist Sarah Wang\, author of the novel New Skin\, for a free one-day writing workshop on “Reimagining the Asian American Immigrant Narrative” on Saturday\, October 24th from 2:00 – 4:00 p.m. ET at the Chatham Square branch of the New York Public Library. \nComplimentary copies of Wang’s novel New Skin (Little\, Brown 2026) will be given to participants (1 per person) until books run out. \nHow can we develop narrative strategies when writing immigrant stories and characters\, particularly in regard to Asian Americans? This generative workshop will discuss approaches to crafting immigrant stories across fiction and nonfiction\, as well as how we can move past limiting tropes such as the model minority stereotype and achieving the American dream. \nWang’s novel New Skin\, which Maggie Nelson describes as “mirthfully and mercilessly abject\,” explores such approaches through writing characters who dare to dream beyond meritocracy and belonging\, offering a different perspective on the immigrant story. \nAttendees will participate in dialogue about their own histories\, experiences\, and identities during the workshop to foster collaboration and exchange ideas. \nNo writing experience necessary; all levels of participation are welcome. Bring a pen and paper or laptop to write with. \nThis workshop is open to all Asian American writers and is supported by White Rabbit Trust\, Kundiman\, Welcome to Chinatown\, and Yu & Me Books. Free beverages from Sanzo will be provided. Registration is limited to 60 participants. \nRegister here (RSVP required): https://www.eventbrite.com/e/free-writing-workshop-with-novelist-sarah-wang-author-of-new-skin-tickets-2002951210990
