Tips For Inspired Writing: Lunch & Learn with Steve Padilla

This event is sold out.

Re-energize how you view writing — and the way you do it — with tips from nationally sought-after writing coach Steve Padilla. Padilla is editor of Column One, the L.A. Times’ showcase for storytelling.

Padilla has once again partnered with the National Press Club Journalism Institute to guide you out of your writing ruts with sentence-level, achievable techniques to invigorate your writing.

Padilla will share his advice over lunch at the National Press Club from noon to 1:30 p.m. ET Friday, Aug. 2. Join us for lunch — and lots of learning — as we celebrate writing and ways to sharpen our approach to this important skill.

Designed for professional nonfiction writers, Padilla’s talk will give you fresh ways to:

• Craft descriptions
• Construct anecdotes
• Trim and squeeze your copy

Tickets for this event are sold out. You can still hear advice from Steve Padilla at the Institute's virtual master class on story structure, Aug. 16. Click here to learn more.
