SUMMARY:Learn Deep Revision Techniques
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Laurel Yourke will speak on the heart of revision-it’s not just polishing or substituting one word for another. Instead\, look at revision as viewing at your own words in a completely new way: re-envisioning them. One might divide this approach into five steps: \nWhat is the essence of your story\, poem\, or book? \nWhat is deep structure\, and how can you use it to diagnose? \nWhat issues do you want to tackle\, and how will you approach this process? \nWhat’s the relationship between author\, narrator\, characters\, and reader? \nWhat’s needed for that final polish? \nView revision through the lens of exploration\, and it becomes an exciting challenge to transform your project into everything you hoped it would be. \nDr. Laurel Yourke\, who has received two teaching awards\, recently published Beyond the First Draft: Deep Novel Revision. Earlier publications include Take Your Characters to Dinner (on the craft of fiction) and Waiting for Beethoven (a poetry collection). During her career at UW-Madison Continuing Studies\, she taught students from eight to eighty\, presenting at Writer’s Institute\, Write by the Lake\, School of the Arts\, among others. Her speaking engagements across Wisconsin ranged from writing and revising fiction\, nonfiction\, and poetry. \nBuy your ticket now! \nhttps://www.ticketsource.us/california-writers-club-berkeley-branch/cwc-speaker-series-dr-laurel-yourke-deep-revision-techniques/2021-01-17/13:00/t-lggxgp \n  \nUpcoming Speaker Series Events \nFebruary 21st: Sage Cohen \nApril 18th: Emily Cotler \nMarch 21st: TBA \nMay 16th: Author Panel \nJune 20th: Member Book Launch (Authors Published in 2020 – 2021) \n  \nThe California Writers Club (CWC) formed in 1909.
