Jim McLennan: Living and Writing the Outdoor Life
This is a paid event.
This course digs deeply into the mechanics and philosophy of creating short non-fiction. It is interactive, with time spent in discussion with the instructor and other participants. This is a chance to do something surprisingly rare—to speak, think, and focus on writing with other people who share the interest and passion.
Through six sessions we’ll spend significant time reading, examining and discussing examples of ours and other’s work. Students will be asked to create work, which will be reviewed by the group. Though the submission of writing samples is optional, students benefit greatly from having their work read and critiqued gently by the group.
This course is for people new to writing or people with some experience who would like to improve. Previous writing experience is not required; interest in writing and a passion for the outdoors are the only pre-requisites.
A Zoom link will be emailed to you a couple of days before the class. You will also have lifetime access to the recorded sessions, which will available to you in your class dashboard.
The class is limited to 8 students for personalized attention.
