Indiana University basketball coach Bobby Knight likes to say that one of the first things that people learn how to do is write - and then they go on to other things.
But some people never do learn to write, at least as well as they want to. That's why there are so many opportunities for rookie writers to attend workshops, seminars and the like.
One such workshop is the 1996 Writer's Workshop, which is sponsored by Clark College of Vancouver, Wash. Set for Saturday, April 13, the one-day event features a series of morning skills sessions in poetry or fiction, a lunch reading by poet Sandra McPherson and afternoon workshops in fiction or poetry. Registration is $35.
