Do you dream of writing tantalizing tales of your travel adventures?  There’s more to travel writing than just describing where you’ve been and what you’ve seen.  Travel writer Linda Kenyon will show you how to craft a tightly constructed piece that will bring to life the places you’ve been and explore their significance.  Come prepared to do some writing — bring pen and paper, your laptop, whatever works for you — and to share your work. Free to all adults and new adults, but seating is limited. To avoid disappointment, please register in advance online or by phone at (613) 549-8888. Tuesday, August 13, Isabel Turner Branch, 2 p.m.
