Description | from The Convergence Zone is a series of author readings, and artist talks and performances, sponsored by the MFA in Creative Writing & Poetics at the University of Washington Bothell. It brings together sometimes peaceable, sometimes combustible, fronts of discovery and experiment. This series brings to the (virtual) Seattle metropolitan area exciting writers and artists who "cross" and "trans" genres and media. It discusses and performs written arts in an expanded field. Registering for this event will provide access to the Friday afternoon events in this series. April 15, 2021: Donna Miscolta
Donna Miscolta is the author of three books of fiction. Living Color: Angie Rubio Stories, published in 2020, was hailed by Washington State Book Award winner Sharma Shields as “fiction at its very best: intimate, universal, historical, and relevant as hell to our current era.” Her previous books are Hola and Goodbye, winner of the Doris Bakwin Award for Writing by a Woman, and When the de la Cruz Family Danced, which poet Rick Barot called “intricate, tender, and elegantly written – a necessary novel for our times.” She recently received funding from 4Culture to work on a collection of essays about family, identity, and heritage.
