In this ongoing intimate workshop, we’ll gather across three weeks to connect over our favourite stories, share the projects we’re drafting and build a community of writers. We’ll cover generative exercises, discuss effective criticism, develop a shared vocabulary for story-craft and learn to champion work unlike our own. We’ll read, we’ll write and we’ll laugh. We’ll build skills to sharpen our prose—those pieces written, and those pieces yet to come. 

This workshop will invite writers to share their own writing for discussion amongst the group. Attendees must commit to all three sessions.

Session dates and times
Week one: 1–3.30pm, Saturday 28 March
Week two: 1–3.30pm, Saturday 11 April
Week three: 1–3.30pm, Saturday 18 April
