  • Writing about Food

    Writing about food can be deep, rich, rewarding. After all, food writing can take practically any form. The goal of this workshop: to help you find your voice as a food writer. You’ll think, eat, and write about food. All levels welcome. Beginners and non-native speakers of English welcome.

  • Read Like a Writer

    “If we want to write, it makes sense to read—and to read like a writer. If we wanted to grow roses, we would want to visit rose gardens and try to see them the way that a rose gardener would.”
    – Francine Prose
