A passionate fiction writer.
Consider also as a possible venue a community senior center. Here the director is tasked with providing varied and interesting activities to keep the clients engaged, and you have just what they need. Admittedly, there is usually a routine that the center follows, but something different and valuable to the clients, as a workshop on an aspect of the language would certainly be, is an attractive offer, so they would welcome your presentation.
College English departments also are
a fertile resource for presenting a workshop on writing. Most colleges have a
campus-wide activity period each semester. A lot of activities go on during
this time, organized by clubs and other groups. At such a time, an English
professor may invite a guest to his or her class. As an instructor, I invited a
writer to my class, and it proved extremely satisfying for both the students
and me. Later I, too, was invited to address a group of English majors during
one of their activity periods. This is a time when you can give useful
highlights on the writing life to young people who may be interested in
becoming writers.
