An inspiring writing workshop for connecting with your natural world.
About this Event

Follow in Emily Carr’s footsteps and explore nature’s many wonders through writing. Experience how the flow of your pen can transport you to the heart of a pinecone, or whisk you away into the starry sky. This is a workshop for anyone who wants to simply delight in a morning of writing, or who wants to elevate their ability to capture nature moments in their stories.

Meet Your Instructor:

Sue Scott, BA, MSc, has been an adult educator for over 40 years and she has studied the craft of writing for over 20 years. Sue considers Robert McKee’s principles of STORY to be a foundational writing influence, and she has received numerous finalist and semi-finalist placements in highly-regarded international screenwriting competitions. Sue is delighted to be revisiting her earlier passion for short story writing, and she welcomes all writers into a supportive writing space. Sue’s workshops are fun, informative, and inspired by life’s magic moments.

♿️ Please note that this workshop is prepared to take place upstairs. Contact Carr House at [email protected] if this is a barrier for you and we will do our best to accommodate your needs.
