Speculative Persona: A Craft Talk with Sally Wen Mao
Cricket Hill Barn
OPEN TO THE PUBLIC | This craft talk explains the process of using speculative elements in poetry through persona poems, investigating how contemporary poets such as Adrian Matejka and Melissa Lozada-Oliva use speculative personae in their book-length projects The Big Smoke and Dreaming of You, as well as my own process writing speculative persona in Oculus.
