About
Travel writing is a curious thing. Floating somewhere between the emotional lightness of lifestyle writing and the factual weight of news reporting, it tries to both inform and entertain those who love to travel. In this two-hour workshop, experienced travel writer Tim Richards will teach participants how to write their own travel articles, with emphasis on how to catch the reader’s attention and convey to them what it was like to be there. Attendees should bring pen and paper, or laptop, as this will be a hands-on session in which they’ll begin writing an article and will share ideas with their fellow would-be travel writers.
