About

Want to sound more thoughtful, persuasive, or powerful in your writing? In this session, we’ll look at how authors use rhetorical and literary devices—like repetition, rhetorical questions, imagery, and parallel structure—and learn how to apply those same techniques in your own essays, stories, or arguments. You’ll leave with examples, writing practice, and go-to strategies to level up your writing style instantly.
