Sentence Design: Parallel Construction
Tuesday, February 9
6:30 to 7:30 p.m. CT
Could this sentence be improved: My new apartment is bright, sunny, and transportation is just around the corner? Probably so, because its construction is not parallel: three elements follow the verb, but only two, bright and sunny, are adjectives. The next Writing Smartly seminar will explain parallel construction, what it is and what purpose it serves in leading readers skillfully through one’s ideas. Participants will receive a handout that summarizes the presentation, along with exercises and answers. You may enroll now through this registration link. Tuition is $25. Please note the new starting time: 6:30 p.m. CT.
