Foundations of Writing & Rhetoric
Minnesota State University, Mankato
16 weeks
August 22 – December 9, 2022
Foundations of Writing & Rhetoric is a process writing course. Students in this course approach writing as a subject of study by investigating how writing works across a variety of contexts. In this course, students will investigate how writing works by:
- Increasing genre awareness, rhetorical knowledge, and use of multimodalities,
- Exploring language variation and multiliteracies by context,
- Developing information literacy through primary and secondary research,
- Reflecting on writing processes and labor, and
- Collaborating to create and revise texts.
Diverse languages and dialects are welcome in this classroom. As we communicate with one another, we’re asked to keep in mind that the reader/listener is asked to work as hard as the writer/speaker in the communication process. This means we listen patiently, work to understand one another, seek out clarification when necessary, and avoid finishing each other’s sentences or correcting grammatical errors unless invited to do so.
*This statement comes from Catherine Savini’s “10 Ways to Tackle Linguistic Bias in Our Classrooms.”
“I’ve really enjoyed Glenda’s teaching style. She broke down writing in a way that doesn’t make it feel as intimidating. I’m not lying when I say writing is my biggest insecurity. Glenda’s feedback made me feel extremely validated.”

Flash Memoir II: Tell the Stories of Your Life in 500 Words
COMPAS residency at Tasks Unlimited – ONLINE
6 weeks
July 15 – August 19, 2022
This follow-up residency builds on and develops ideas explored in the initial Flash Memoir residency at Tasks Unlimited in 2021, while remaining accessible to new and drop-in participants. “Flash” memoir offers a fun and low-stakes way to tell the stories of our lives. Participants may be new to writing or have been thinking about writing their life story and aren’t sure where to begin. Together we will make a lifetime timeline using memories, anecdotes, and family histories. We’ll then pick one event, memory, or moment from each participant’s timeline to write as a “Flash” memoir piece–a super-short-form true story under 500 words. We’ll read example flash memoir pieces from literary magazines, including Brevity, Creative Nonfiction, and The Sun. We’ll try our hand at a 140-character Twitter memoir and 1-paragraph stories. At the end of our time together participants will have a completed flash memoir piece as well as a map to continue writing a longer work of memoir, if so desired, and resources for continued support.
Together we will:
- Create a custom timeline that follows the big and small, tragic and wondrous events in each participants’ life.
- Use guided writing exercises focused on self-compassion and kindness to help participants pick a personally meaningful subject matter to write about.
- Discuss and practice strategies for writing into insights, deeper understandings, and new ideas about our own stories.
- Discuss and practice elements of craft including story structure and plot, characterization, dramatic action, and specific detail.
- Discuss the role of anxiety in the act of creation and practice strategies for befriending our anxiety.
- Read heartfelt and poignant stories to help inspire our own work.
- Work together to create a safe and vibrant community in which participants feel comfortable sharing and discussing their writing.
At the end of the residency, GLENDA REED will work with participants to co-curate a podcast. Together, we review in-class recordings made throughout the 6-week residency and select recordings of participant readings to weave together in one 10-20 minute podcast episode.
This is a closed program.

Give sorrow words…
~William Shakespeare
We will explore how writing can help heal our relationship to our own stories. Together, we will investigate how different aspects of craft, from specific detail to focused narrative, not only make good literature, but can help writers gain new perspectives on old stories and find a path to healing. Writing exercises are adapted from Louise DeSalvo’s Writing as a Way of Healing, Writing Works: A Resource for Therapeutic Writing Workshops, and How Dare We Write!: A Multicultural Creative Writing Discourse edited by Sherry Quan Lee. The focus will be on generating new writing. Though we won’t be critiquing work together, we will discuss and practice editing tools to help you uncover a fuller understanding of your personal histories.
We will also discuss how writers, including D.H. Lawrence, Carmen Maria Machado, and Virginia Woolf, and others, have been transformed by the writing process.
This class is intended for writers ready to guide themselves along the path of self-healing. The instructor is not a trained mental health professional and though this class is meant to be therapeutic, it is not a substitute for therapy. Trauma survivors are encouraged to seek professional support.

Find the Meaning in Your Memoir
8 Weeks
June 19th – Agust 14th, 2019
6:00 pm – 8:00 pm
The Loft Literary Center
1011 Washington Avenue South, Minneapolis, MN 55407
Memoir is more than writing down a sequence of events. You know what happened, but what is your story about? And how do you get the perspective to answer this question? In this class, discussions and writing exercises as well as peer and teaching artist feedback will help you explore the question: what is my memoir really about?
We will borrow fiction writing techniques to audit the secret motivations of your memoir’s main “character” and explore that character’s ultimate change. We will discuss the secret motivations and deeper meaning in memoirs such as Wild by Cheryl Strayed, Born a Crime: Stories from a South African Childhood by Trevor Noah, and You Don’t Have to Say You Love Me by Sherman Alexie. We will not be reading these books cover to cover, but rather discussing their overall plots and reading excerpts when appropriate.
Writing exercises as well as peer and teaching artist feedback will focus on guiding you to a deeper understanding of the meaning of your story. Class time will be split roughly in half between writing exercises and workshopping. The goal of the class is to help you find an increased awareness of your own memoir and to provide you with tools to continue to plumb the depths of your story beyond the end of the class. Whether you have an idea for a memoir, but haven’t started writing, have writing you’d like to shape into an essay or book, or have a completed manuscript that lacks a deeper meaning behind the sequence of events—this class is intended to help you uncover truths latent in your own story. Class participants need not have a completed manuscript, but should have an idea in mind.

Find the Meaning in Your Memoir
Saturday, October 14th, 2017

The Loft Literary Center
1011 Washington Avenue South, Minneapolis, MN 55407
Memoir is more than writing down a sequence of events. You know what happened, but what is your story about? And how do you get the perspective to answer this question? Through a series of in-class writing exercises, we will perform in-depth self-inquiry to explore the question: what is my memoir really about?
In this one-day session, students will borrow from fiction techniques to audit the secret motivations of their memoir’s main “character.” Students will write an elevator pitch for their memoir and then use these few sentences to launch into an exploration of the main “character’s” motivations, secrets, and ultimate change. We will discuss the secret motivations in memoirs such as Wild, H is for Hawk, and This Boy’s Life. Writing exercises are designed to guide students deeper into the personal meaning of their own story. The goal of the class is to help students find an increased understanding of their own memoir, and to provide students with the tools to continue to plumb the depths of their own story. Students need not have a completed manuscript, but should have an idea in mind.
