Do you live with realities that shock, delight, or implore you? Do you have expertise, confusion, curiosities, appreciations, or denunciations that you want to share in a way that others can hear? In this 6-week class, we will look at essays by James Baldwin, Joan Didion, Brian Doyle, Maya Angelou, and Rebecca Solnit to see how their use of a persona narrator and other elements of craft help them to welcome the reader.

This class will be conducted via video chat.
