“Writing Scenes”
Writing scenes continues to be a struggle for many writers. In this
program we will learn what a scene is and is not, how to recognize scenes in
our writing and how to write a scene. Beatriz Badikian-Gartler was born in
Buenos Aires, Argentina and has lived in the Chicago area for more than 40
years. She holds a PhD in English from the University of Illinois at
Chicago and has taught at various institutions of higher learning: Northwestern,
Loyola, and Roosevelt Universities. She is an Illinois Humanities Council Road
Scholar and a frequent Newberry Library instructor. See Beatriz's website at: bbgartler.com and
