Cape Cod Writers Center's "Writers Night Out," October 16, 2019: Writing Stories That Sound Real. Cape Cod Times editor, journalist and storyteller, Gwenn Friss, will speak about writing stories that ring true. How do you write a scene that feels real? In this session, we will discuss how journalists are trained to gather the details that infuse the wonderful, tragic, odd, funny and mundane --  as well as the what, where, when, why and how that journalists are trained to gather.
