This conversation will feature Nik De Dominic (U SC) and Jonathan Leal (USC)\, hosted by Sarah Mesle (USC). Organized in pa rtnership with the Consortium for Gender\, Sexuality\, Race and Public Cul ture. Registration is required. REGISTER\n\n \n\nDescription: What counts as a writer’s “voice”? Voice is one of the slipperiest concepts in w riting. We all know it matters — it shapes how it feels to read\, as wel l as how it feels to write — but it’s hard to harness\, hard to descri be\, and definitely hard to teach. Is voice a personal inner quality that a person has — or that a person finds\, somehow\, within herself? What i f “our” voice is social\, or collective — a manifestation of the art we encounter and the communities we inhabit? This “On Writing” event will sort through our theories\, practices\, and histories of coming into voice. \n\n \n\nNik De Dominic is Professor (Teaching) and Director of the Writing Program at the University of Southern California. He is the autho r of Goodbye Wolf (The Operating System\, 2020) and Your Daily Horoscope ( New Michigan Press\, 2015).

B orn and raised in the Rio Grande Valley of South Texas\, Leal’s transdis ciplinary work spans books\, editorial projects\, albums\, and interdiscip linary arts initiatives exploring cultural geography\, creative resistance \, and conceptual possibility.
