GOTHS AND GEEKS: Rebels of Poetry and Prose

Are you a fan of Harry Potter, Star Wars, or Percy Jackson? Do you enjoy reading and writing about the supernatural, the unexplained, or the distant future? If so, “Goths and Geeks: Rebels of Poetry and Prose” is the workshop for you!

Over the course of the week, we will read five different literary rebels in the genres of horror, fantasy, and science fiction; then, we will write our own stories and poems within those worlds (and beyond).

Instructor RAVEN SISCO is a poet as well as an English and Creative Writing Teacher at Mt. Pleasant High School in East Side San Jose, CA. She has been published internationally, self-published two books in 2020, and currently serves as the Student Poetry Contest chair for the California Federation of Chaparral Poets. Among her personal interests are crafting, playing volleyball, and of course writing poetry.
