A Walking Writers Salon with Krista Carson (writer, poet, educator, and PhD student), offers insights from her practice-based doctoral work where she is exploring the relationship between walking and creativity. Her book-in-progress weaves together prose and poetry framed by walks she has taken (often literal, sometimes figurative). She ponders uncertainty, transformation, and becoming as she moves toward embracing a creative life. In this Walking Writers Salon, Krista will share how walking can be used in three distinct and useful ways—as subject, method, and structure—in storytelling.
Krista is currently completing her doctoral dissertation, Footnotes: A Practice-Based Exploration into Walking, Writing, and Creativity, through the School of Creative Arts at the University of Gloucestershire. Her practice-based research explores the relationship between walking and creativity.
