How To Write The Future

“So conflict is when it's between two very difficult choices that look bad, that feel bad, that are bad, that imply emotional or psychological pain, or of course, physical pain or death. Or conflict can also be between two very good things, but you just can't have one or the other.”
— BETH BARANY


In the latest How To Write the Future episode, host Beth Barany does a Story Success Clinic session with Wattpad and science fiction writer, Annika K.E. Morgan. Together they discuss writing conflict into scenes and the benefits of collaborative writing. Beth also shares how you can sign up to have your very own Story Success clinic session.

"...we tend to organize urban spaces to isolate youth and also to not invite youth in, and I think we need to completely change that model."
– Kimberly Nightingale


In this interview episode on How To Write the Future, host Beth Barany talks with Kimberly Nightingale, whose PhD focus in urban studies about belonging in cities for youth. They discuss the importance of inviting youth into adult decision-making spaces and how getting them involved in the community will have a positive influence on all. They also share insight into breaking and othering and what this means. 


ABOUT KIMBERLY NIGHTINGALE

Kimberly (she/her/hers) believes in the power of people to tell their own stories. She is the former creator, executive director, and publisher of the Saint Paul Almanac, where for fifteen years she supported people sharing their stories, poetry, and art in different spaces, including books, readings, open mics, storymobiles, films, and on the walls of art galleries, buses, and trains. Kimberly understands that being published is a powerful, transformative experience. Her research areas include the emotional connection to place and using art to bridge breaking and othering to nurture belonging. At Portland State University, Kimberly’s PhD focus in urban studies is belonging in cities for youth through arts-based critical participatory action research (CPAR) in intergenerational spaces.
