RE: Want to capture your travels in print? Learn how with Nick O’Connell

 

Nick O'Connell

Instructor: Nick O’Connell 

You’ve taken the trip, but how do you recreate the experience for others? Good travel writing utilizes all the skills of creative nonfiction: dramatic scenes, character sketches, concrete detail, point of view, and scene-by-scene construction. In Session 1 of this class, students will explore these elements through lecture and discussion as they begin writing a 750- to 1000-word manuscript on a trip they’ve taken. In Session 2 of this class, students will center on revision of their completed manuscripts through feedback from the instructor and their peers.

TRAVEL WRITING
Number of sessions: 2 ~ Dates: Saturdays, November 7 & 14th ~ Time: 1:00 – 4:00 p.m. ~ Tuition: $120 ~ Location: Library Meeting Room, Bainbridge Public Library
