Writing Workshop: Personal Essay Structures

Event Description

When writing personal essays, structure isn't just the box you put your ideas into action it's a key that can unlock powerful ideas. Whether you're seeking a clear and effective story arc or playing with a more experimental approach, understanding structure will help you communicate and make a lasting
impact. This workshop invites you to consider how the stories that move us are put together, and
how these ideas can be useful in your own writing.
