Make Your Writing Sing: A Writer’s Practice for Reading Aloud

Writers are often called upon to read their work in public. Yet for  many, reading aloud can be a nerve-racking experience. Join poet and performer Jaime Warburton and multi-instrumentalist Em Ludek for this free workshop on how to prepare yourself and your writing for performance, using a method of musical notation that brings your writing to life with sonic and rhythmic awareness that catches your audience's ear and heart.

For novice and experienced writers/storytellers in all genres. No music reading necessary. Bring an excerpt of your own writing (<100 words). Registration is required.

This workshop is part of Spring Writes, an annual literary festival organized by the Community Arts Partnership of Tompkins County. The photo of Jaime Warburton is by Ming Demers.
