Here, in the intimate tradition of the botánica, where candles cast passionate shadows and smoke coils from brass bowls, this generative workshop invites writers to regard the literary sex

scene as something more than performance. Wielding pen as brush, we apply the techniques of the art world to capture impressions of sensuality that feel emotionally true and spiritually resonant. Here, sensuality is not a spectacle, but a residue, felt in breath, in pause, in what’s left unsaid. Writers will experiment with language that conjures rather than declares, gesture over anatomy, feeling over form. Together, we’ll write toward the charged space between the lines–toward the heat, the honey, the smoke. 

Come, write with us, and encounter the illusion of explicitness.
