You need to read in order to write. Well, duh…

So, on your journey to better writing skills, you open, say, “New Scientist” or “The Guardian,” and devour an article or two. Then what? If only reading alone was enough… . You need to read purposefully – and for this, you need to know what to look for.

🦋 This is what we will explore in our second “Writing Incubator” workshop.

In the session this Sunday, we will:

- look at some practical tips on how to tap into reading in order to become a better writer;

- find and practice some writing tools useful for CAE/CPE articles and reviews (from “the Guardian”);

- find and practice some patterns good for IELTS writing (from “New Scientist”).

📅 16 March, Sunday, 11:00 am Moscow time, Zoom

💌 The workshop is free. To get the link, write a comment with a meaningful and/or creative ending to this phrase: “Learning to write without reading is like … .” And then dm me @iraluts.

📌 Please note that this is a workshop, not a webinar or a lecture. If you join, you will have to write. "Ghosts" will be kicked out.

PS: If you are on the fence about joining, check out the comments.
