Close Reading workshops

“Read everything, everything. just read and read aloud”

—Dr. Maya Angelou,

Authors agree reading is essential to writing.

Close reading sessions with Adrienne Quinn deep dive into selected texts and dismantle them in order to see how they are constructed; word by word, line by line, paragraph by paragraph. These close reading workshops last 90 minutes and are held monthly via zoom.

“You have to read widely, constantly…if you don’t have time to read you don’t have time (or the tools) to write. reading is the creative centre of a writer’s life”

-Stephen King, On Writing: A Memoir of the Craft
