About Writing the Next World
Writing the Next World is an annual writing retreat organized in collaboration with our friends, the writers/podcasters (not to mention singers/musicians/spell-casters & magic makers!) Autumn & adrienne maree brown.
Inspired by the work of Black feminist science fiction writer Octavia Butler, our collaboration was initially offered as a series of workshops in the north of Ireland for people with a shared experience of the political conflict. Since 2023, we have offered WNW in the form of an annual retreat in Ireland.
The retreat is rooted in the lineages of visionary & speculative fiction and Black Feminist Praxis, while centering the Irish landscape and the experience of her people.
Information about the annual retreats are available here.
