Writing Is Rewriting: a revision workshop

Everyone says that writing is rewriting, but what is revision and how do you do it successfully? What’s the difference between revision and editing? How do you know when a piece of writing is finished?

Join WriteByNight consultant, coach, and instructor Steve Adams for this unique offering in which you’ll learn the answers to these necessary questions and apply the answers to your own writing.

Tuesdays, June 11 and 25, 7-10 p.m. at WriteByNight (1305 E. 6th Street, Suite 4, Austin)
$65 for nonmembers, $55 for members. Explore membership here
