Webinar: The Art of Lifestyle Writing
One of the best things about lifestyle journalism is how much this beat is about real life. From what we should be eating, to how to interact with our partners, to which health issue matters the most in the community, lifestyle journalism has the power to change how people live.
If you’d like to learn more about lifestyle writing, join us on Wednesday, October 11th at 3:00 p.m. E.T. for a webinar with writer Arti Patel called “The art of lifestyle writing.”
In this workshop, you will learn skills necessary for lifestyle writing: how to interview lifestyle experts, how to find good lifestyle stories, and the importance of hearing from various voices.
Webinar leader Arti Patel is an award-winning reporter and editor with a focus on health, women’s issues, relationships, and awareness around racism and gender equality. She started as an intern at Huffington Post Canada’s Toronto office and worked as an editor in the lifestyle department for almost six years. With a deep passion for storytelling that goes back to her Ryerson University journalism days, she has also dabbled in long-form features on mental health and divorce, produced videos and hosted several segments for lifestyle channels.
