On May 5th and 6th I begin teaching my latest courses in Vancouver and I’d love to have you join me. I have a few spaces left in my Food and Travel Writing course which begins Tuesday, May 6th for 8 weeks through the UBC Writing Centre. The class size is small, which gives you a great opportunity to workshop story ideas, query letters and your writing with me, often in one on one situations. If you’ve ever thought of sharing your stories of food and/or travel and getting published, this course is a great way to start. The course includes a ‘field trip’ to a new Vancouver restaurant for first-hand experience at writing restaurant reviews. For more details visit the UBC Writing Centre website.
On Monday, May 5th I begin teaching my Food Culture Course at Barbara-jo’s Books To Cooks. This is another 8-week program taught on Monday nights in the superb setting of Barbara-jo’s cosy kitchen counter area of her shop. Angela Murrills wrote a great description of the course in the Georgia Straight, you can read it here. For a more detailed listing of each night of the course, click here. You save money by signing up for the entire series, or you can order each lesson a la carte. All lessons include a book or DVD as well as complimentary snacks and beverages.
