Workshop
Taking Your Writing to the Next Level
When we first start writing, we are given a number of useful rules, like "avoid the passive" and "don't use a long word when a short one will do" and "avoid jargon." But we've read enough to note that good writers often break the rules, which suggests that taking our writing to the next level might entail different ways of thinking about what we're doing. This workshop will offer some tools and ideas to do just that.
