  • Today's Post
  • Writers Workshop
  • Writing

That’s what we’ll be doing…

And here’s how we’ll be doing it…

  • Every Saturday I post a lesson pertaining to that week’s topic. It will include
    • text written by me
    • an assignment (prompt, research task) for you
  • You have the week to complete the assignment.
  • We will communicate on-line during the week as much or as little as we need to.
  • Some weeks, we will meet in a video chat at a time that works for both of us.

Logistics:

  • I set up a virtual Workshop room in Google Drive.
  • Drive enables not only private sharing of documents, but commenting as well.
  • This will be the central part of the workshop, which you can access any time that works for you from any platform (Drive works on smart phones as well as tablets).
  • The video chats take place in real time via Google Hangouts.

Want to Know How I Know About All This:

  • I’ve been a working writer all my adult life and that means I understand what it feels like to be a writer as well as what how the business works.
  • Since 1975, I have earned my living as
    • a magazine feature writer (too many to list, including Redbook, Los Angeles, New Times, Ladies Home Journal
    • non-fiction book writer (Doubleday),
    • documentary producer (PBS),
    • radio reporter (KPFK),
    • scholarly writer (academic conferences)
    • business writer (British American Chamber of Commerce)
    • print editor (LA Free Press),
    • blogger (Patch, More.com, Third Age, Vibrant Nation, She Posts).
    • I founded MidLifeBloggers.com in 2008 and the first Writers Workshop began that year.
      • JaneGassner(dot)Com is my website
      • My resume, including the full list of my publications, is at my LinkedIn profile.
