WRITING ABOUT NATURE
Sunday, April 7, 2019 — Woodneath Story Center, Mid-Continent Public Library, 8900 NE Flintlock Rd, Kansas City, Missouri; 2 to 4 pm.
In observance of the 70th anniversary of Aldo Leopold’s A Sand County Almanac, I’ll discuss ways to approach writing about nature. I’ll also talk a little about the history of the 1855 mansion, part of which is under restoration and has been incorporated into the library center, as a way to conduct place research. Then, I’ll lead participants (weather permitting) on a short walk around the Woodneath grounds to put to use the techniques we’ve explored.
