When and Where in the Essay | April 23, 2026, 11 AM - 1 PM CST

$50.00

In this 2-hour seminar, we’ll look at the way essayists establish the When and Where their essay, as well as for the persona (the “I”). We’ll look at the openings of essays to understand how writers ground the reader in time and place. I’ll also explain the occasions when these details may be omitted. You’ll have a chance to experiment with revising your existing essay drafts or create opening for new drafts. The Zoom link will be emailed to you.
