A Writing Workshop

Trust Arts Education Center (805-807 Liberty Ave., Pittsburgh, PA)

Join us for a small group writing workshop at the Three Rivers Arts Festival, taught by Anjali Sachdeva. The event is free but reservations are required–register here.

Many people keep a journal as a record of the important events of their lives, or as a place to record daily thoughts and feelings. But if you want to turn those personal notes into an essay or article for publication, it can be difficult to translate them into writing that will be meaningful to other people. In this workshop we'll consider how to write about personal experiences, with an emphasis on finding ways to make personal writing moving and enticing for a larger audience. The workshop is suitable for beginner and intermediate writers. If you keep a journal or are working on a personal essay and would like to bring a single page with you to revise, please do, but it is fine to come without any written material.
