Writers on Writing: Wednesdays at the Westfield Campus of San Francisco State University. The OLLI classroom is Room 677 and holds 40 people.
Here's the course description:
Writers on Writing is a literary salon, where published authors will read from their books, talk about their creative process, and answer questions. A new author will be featured each week. After the Q&A, authors will offer a writing exercise based on their book, with time to share writing at the end of the session. If you've ever read a book and wanted to speak with the author, this class is for you.
