The
WordShop component of the Louisiana Book Festival offers writing WordShops
emphasizing craft. Faculty, local and national, are highly credentialed
and have a commitment to teaching. WordShops are serious educational
experiences, presented in a supportive, informal environment, appropriate
for both novice and advanced writers, as well as anyone who enjoys books
and good conversation. Equally important is the development of the
Louisiana community of students and teachers who support art in literature
as well as one another’s pursuits. The Louisiana Book Festival WordShops
function under the assumption that everyone is creative and anyone can
write. We offer the tools to craft your work. We respect you and your
writing, and whatever your writing background, we treat you like a
professional and strive to boost your confidence to create. The varied
backgrounds that students can bring to the classroom enrich the creative
process for everyone; we welcome a diverse mix of participants.
