This workshop runs 2 more weeks on Thursdays: May 1 and May 8, 6:30-8:30 pm. Newcomers are welcome each week.

Righting Your Writing focuses on self-editing to bring clarity to your writing using fewer words. Last week we were encouraged to think of the person or audience to whom we write. We also learned to seek and destroy redundancy, the most prevalent “weed” in writing. This Thursday we will focus on empowering our writing by unsmothering verbs and playing with pronouns to prevent them from causing misinterpretation. Remember: Writing isn’t just a business or professional skill—it’s a life skill.
