For more than a decade Cheryl Strayed has written the popular “Dear Sugar” advice column, which has been collected in her bestselling book Tiny Beautiful Things that was recently adapted for an Emmy-nominated Hulu television show.
In this talk, Cheryl will share stories about everything she’s learned about the art of writing advice—and indeed, writing honestly in all of her work—about the wildly human and universal experiences that connect us all. Cheryl will also take questions from the audience and sign books afterwards.
This program will be livestreamed, and a recording will be available upon request.
