Wordherders Monthly Meeting

2019-04-08 @ 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm

Let’s continue with the fundamentals – this month we’ll discuss some basic building blocks of story telling: sentence structure and action/reaction sequences. And if we have time at the end, maybe we’ll have a little grammar trivia from the new book, Dreyer’s English, by the copy chief of Random House, Benjamin Dreyer.
