What if you could participate in a writer’s workshop with Virginia Woolf?
Sat. 25 October
10:15 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
Butte Room at the Hillcrest Library in Boise
Participants in this interactive workshop will hone skills with “writing sparks” — writing exercises on style, structure, setting, conflict, character, dialogue and more. Come prepared with laptop / paper and pens or pencils.
Advanced and beginning writers are invited to this free event.
This is possible thanks to the book The Virginia Woolf Writer’s Workshop by Danell Jones. Jones mined Woolf’s diaries, essays, and letters for the book in which she imagined Woolf teaching writing.
She has been teaching writing for more than twenty years. She earned a Ph.D. in English literature from Columbia University, where she was awarded both a Whiting Fellowship in the Humanities and a Bennett Cerf Award for her work on Virginia Woolf.
Happily, Jones said she was delighted about the Boise workshop based on her book.
Obtain a copy of the book in advance. It’s available at most retailers.
The workshop will be led by award-winning writer Patricia Marcantonio.
