Session 1
How to Revise: Strategies for Focusing and Improving Your Writing Project
Dec 6th, 2-3:30pm, E19-202, 50 Ames St.
Revision is more than just a stage in the writing process. It’s an opportunity—to focus, develop, even discover what you want to say and how to best connect with your audience. In this interactive workshop, you’ll learn practical revision strategies you can apply to any writing project so you can make the most of your communication opportunities.
Session 2
How to Edit Your Writing
Dec 7th, 2-3:30pm, E19-202, 50 Ames St.
Editing, a crucial latter step in the writing process, means more than just checking your draft for errors. When writers edit well, they help readers better understand and appreciate their ideas by turning tangled, thorny sentences into a well-tended garden. In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn and practice editing strategies that will make your sentences clear, concise, and cohesive so your writing and thinking can bloom.
