About this Seminar
Taking your blogging beyond the classroom and making it your own.
The seminar will be in partnership with the Prince Rupert Public Library.
It will take place this Fall from late September to early December over 14 weeks and will involve 7 live ZOOM sessions bridged by online blogging activities and resources to encourage you to explore blogging in your own way at your own pace.
These sessions will be recorded and be available to the public on the Prince Rupert Public Library website and on this blog.
The sessions and suggested activities are voluntary; you are not expected to attend, and you will not be graded.
You are invited to respond to and comment on my suggestions, writing prompts and recommendations, as well as ask questions.
