Phillip Lopate recently visited CALA’s fall Feature Writing for Print and Digital Media class, taught by Susan Hartman, to discuss the craft of writing personal essays. Mr. Lopate, who is widely celebrated for his essays, has also published two novels, novellas, books of poetry, and film criticism. Chatting informally, he encouraged students to sometimes break away from the old writing rule: “Show don’t tell.” And to celebrate the element of surprise.
This spring Susan Hartman will be teaching two courses. Please click on title links for information and to register:
