OBITUARY WRITING CLASS
Thursday, April 2, 5-7 pm
At Mordidas, Manantial 375, Colonia Buenos Aires
This class is taught in English by Rick Hepting, who has written obituaries and movie and restaurant reviews for several small weekly newspapers in Northern California.
Without sounding too morbid, many are nearing the age of death but no one, I would venture, has prepared his or her obituary and will be leaving this very important tradition to another, someone who probably knows very little of their lives.
In this class we will examine several techniques of obituary creation and discuss what should or could be included - or not - in an obit.
We will write our own obits over glasses of wine, cups of coffee or ... We have a limited selection of drinks so BYOB if you wish.
Finally, we will share and discuss what we have written.
This is probably the most difficult writing you will ever do.
