Finding Your Voice with Linda Kulman

One of these is finding your narrative voice. Among the hardest parts of writing, finding your voice is the foundation of a good story, whether a short essay, a magazine piece, a memoir—or a book you’re ghostwriting in someone else’s voice. This workshop will examine the decisions that go into crafting a voice that organizes and drives your story and keeps readers hanging on your every word.

Linda Kulman is the author of Teaching Common Sense: The Grand Strategy Program at Yale University, about a groundbreaking leadership course that trains the next generation to cope with a rapidly changing and increasingly complex world. She has collaborated on seven nonfiction books, including Amanda Knox’s New York Times bestseller, Waiting to Be Heard. Kulman was a senior writer at U.S. News & World Report and has contributed to the Washington Post, National Geographic, the Huffington Post, and NPR.org.
