This town is full of stories to tell. In this course, you will help us uncover and share the stories of all sorts of people with a deep connection to Dedham’s past and present.
This nonfiction profile-writing course will take place on weekends in the fall of 2023 at the Dedham Public Library.
In this course, you will interview and write a profile article on a Dedham resident or residents.
And, you will learn about the process of story subject selection, interviewing and interview prep, writing and revising profile stories, thinking about your audience, voice and tone.
At the end of the course, we will share these stories online with a wider audience.
The goals of this project are to build new connections within our community and allow town residents to learn more about each other and about Dedham!
