The Art of the Short Review:
Workshop with Patty Osborne
Patty Osborne

A workshop for anyone who wants to write what they think—in a few strong sentences. This workshop will be valuable to those who want to write reviews, but the same techniques can be used for clear, succinct blog postings.

Patty Osborne, a regular contributor to Geist's Endnotes section, will lead participants through the process of focusing on what needs to be said and the best way to say it.

Bring a book you want to review, a pen or pencil, a pad of paper or a laptop. By the end of the workshop you will have written a short review!

"...as valuable as the courses offered at local universities, and much more affordable. Hooray!"
