‼️Workshop announcement ‼️
We are proud to welcome the wonderful Philip Hewitson who will be hosting the writing workshop "From Idea to Story"
How do you take ideas and turn them into a story? Together we will explore the various structures that underpin stories, find out how to propel narrative with clever use of twists and turns, create engaging plots with creative use of story beats, and discover how to combine all these elements to create satisfying and exciting storytelling.
Phil is a writer, poet, illustrator and filmmaker, born and raised in Carlisle. He makes films for Tolivar Productions, hosts SpeakEasy spoken word open mic night, chairs Brampton Poets’ meetings, and publishes books through Caldew Press. He has taught scriptwriting and narrative at University of Cumbria; teaching students how to craft stories and plot out screenplays. Sometimes he acts in plays at Carlisle’s Green Room Theatre, including ‘The Pink Panther Strikes Again’ and ‘Under Milk Wood’. He also does silly voices, tries to write songs, and travels through time and space in the ongoing Doctor Who spoof Last of the Quantum Time Keepers.
