Whether or not you are planning to be in Baltimore for AAM, there is still 
time to register for this pre-conference workshop on writing!  With other 
aspiring and published writers and journal editors, consider characteristics

of quality professional writing, analyze positive and not-so-great examples,

and share works-in-progress.  Exchange information and ideas. Get feedback
on 
your writing interests.  Groups will also address different types of
writing:

Reporting on Practice: How do you write about a project or program in a way 
that's useful to other practitioners as well as to funders?
Research:  How do you transform a research study into an article?  How do
you 
document and report a case study?
Opinion: What "needs" saying and how do you say it most effectively?
Criticism and review: How can a review contribute to improved practice and 
knowledge building?

Facilitators include representatives from Museum News, Visitor Studies
Today, 
Journal of Museum Education, Exhibitionist, and Curator.
