A Writer's Life Barbara Black
Manage episode 435373816 series 2892321
Barbara Black’s newest book, Little Fortified Stories, published by Caitlin Press in 2024, is now available in stores. In this episode, Barbara delves into her creative process and shares how a literary workshop in Lisbon, complete with port wine and tiny notebooks, inspired this compelling collection of microfiction and flash fiction.
We explore how memory influences creativity, examining how experiences that feel like amnesia can play a crucial role in storytelling. Barbara, a versatile artist whose talents span writing, editing, and performance, has journeyed from North Vancouver’s natural beauty to the stages of classical and jazz music. Her work includes acclaimed poetry and fiction, alongside recent projects like a song cycle based on the Egyptian Book of the Dead.
Barbara’s artistic spirit extends to her garden, where she finds a blend of order and chaos that mirrors her writing.
