8/21, 8/28, 9/4. Sat. 11 am - 12 pm. Building Better Writers (workshop spread over three Saturdays). Taught by Carlton Hargro. $40/person.
This workshop gives you a taste of what it's like to work for a paper. You'll receive weekly assignments and a critique on each one. Targeted to all types of writers, experienced and novices who wish to write for magazines/newspapers, blog (or blog better), write works of non-fiction (like memoirs, historical pieces, newsletters, etc.) and more.
Here's how it works:
• The instructor will be available in person each Saturday starting on 8/21. He'll provide an assignment, give you tips and guidance and answer questions. If you can't be present for the classes, he can email you the assignment. Each assignment could range from an opinion-oriented blog post to a profile piece.
• You'll have until the following Thursday at 5 p.m. to complete and submit your piece.
• The instructor will critique, edit and provide valuable feedback on your writing and return the piece to you before the following Saturday in which you will receive another assignment. You will receive a total of three assignments.
This unique three-work course gives you the opportunity to learn techniques and get a feel for the real world of writing. The instructor, Carlton Hargro, is the current editor in chief of Charlotte's alternative weekly, Creative Loafing. Carlton has over 20 years of experience.
The first class is on Aug. 21 from 11 a.m.- 12:00 p.m. On that day, you'll get some introductory materials in addition to your first assignment. The 2nd and 3rd classes are on Aug. 28 and Sept 04 respectively, from 11 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.
Cost for the three-week workshop is $40. You have to register by Aug. 20; keep in mind you can attend each workshop or just do everything via email. To register call here and say you'd like to register for the writing workshop; we accept all major credit and debit cards, including Visa, Mastercard, American Express and Discover.
