Do you want to put your travel stories on paper?

Award-winning travel author Suzanne Roberts is putting on a writing workshop hosted by Bona Fide Books on Oct. 11 from 6-9pm.

In this class, you’ll learn the basics of writing travel and adventure essays, including crafting work for an audience, basic revision strategies and publishing opportunities.

Roberts is the author of “Almost Somewhere: Twenty-Eight Days on the John Muir Trail” (University of Nebraska Press, 2012), as well as four collections of poetry, including “Three Hours to Burn a Body: Poems on Travel” (2011).

Named “The Next Great Travel Writer” by National Geographic’s Traveler, Roberts has a doctorate in literature and the environment. She teaches English at Lake Tahoe Community College and for the low residency MFA program in creative writing at Sierra Nevada College.

The class fee is $40. The workshop is limited to 10. To sign up, go online.
