How to Write Like I Do
No, not like I do – like published authors from the Pacific Northwest do. Lucky us!
826 Seattle, one of my favorite non-profits, is starting a new series of workshops for adults this year. The series is called “How to Write Like I Do” and all the proceeds benefit 826’s children’s writing programs. Workshops cost $27 and are held about once a month. They cover everything from plot and structure to writing from the perspective of a quadruped. In particular, I am looking forward to attending the following workshops:
Tuesday, February 26 – 7PM
HOW TO BE FUNNY (FUNNY HA HA, NOT FUNNY STRANGE)

Good luck with the workshops. Writing is quickly becoming a lost art, yet grows more and more necessary.
