writers seminar week 1

at JC Art school    aug 16, 7.30 - 9.30
 5th street betw monmouth x coles

Even experienced writers can fall into the trap of wordiness; in this, our first session, we will learn to express more by saying less. We’ll examine passages that do a lot in a short space, discussing how and why they create a satisfying effect. (Featured authors will include Ernest Hemingway and Denis Johnson.) There will be a short, optional writing exercise during the meeting.

Fee: $10 suggested donation
