In this episode, writer and teacher Cinelle Barnes talks with Resort founder Catherine LaSota about her background as a visual artist, her allegiances to particular NBA teams, and the through lines in her creative work.
Cinelle Barnes is a formerly undocumented memoirist, essayist, and educator from Manila, Philippines, and is the author of MONSOON MANSION: A MEMOIR (Little A, 2018, Booklist starred review) and MALAYA: ESSAYS ON FREEDOM (Little A, 2019), and the editor of the New York Times New & Noteworthy book, A MEASURE OF BELONGING: 21 WRITERS OF COLOR ON THE NEW AMERICAN SOUTH (Hub City Press, 2020).
Cinelle is a wonderful writing teacher, and we are so grateful to have hosted a conversation and class with her at the Resort.

It’s a self-paced course that includes bonus content that is exclusive to the Resort.
