WriterHouse Event: Mixing Journalism with Memoir, September 19, 2010
Mixing Journalism with Memoir: A Literary Salon with Fran Hawthorne, Sunday, September 19, 7pm, WriterHouse, 508 Dale Ave, Charlottesville.
Fran Hawthorne, award-winning author of The Overloaded Liberal: Shopping, Investing, Parenting and Other Daily Dilemmas in an Age of Political Activism (Beacon Press, 2010), will talk about how tackling a serious topic (like saving the earth) while writing intimately enough to create an enjoyable read can result in blurring the line between journalism and memoir. Hawthorne is a freelance reporter for the New York Times, Newsday, and The Scientist, with 20 years of journalism experience and four books to her credit. Free and open to the public. WriterHouse: 434-296-1922, www.writerhouse.org.
