About this Event
🎄The season is upon us - time to finally write your Christmas story! 🎄
Age range: Adults. (Ages 14, 15 & 16 year permitted, though to be accompanied by an adult. I am DBS checked)
This creative writing workshop is suitable for beginners, writers with projects underway, or those looking for a fresh injection of inspiration. It is perfect for all genres and those wishing to write short stories.
Workshop description: Season’s Greetings! Yes, it’s that time of year, and what better time to practice our story building skills than via this workshop.
In the iconic and wonderfully inspirational setting of London’s South Bank, where the Christmas cheer flows beside Old Father Thames, this one day creative writing workshop focuses on the creation of a Christmas story (of completely your choice) via the learning, revisiting and practice of the key elements necessary to write a compelling piece of work.
Whether new to creative writing or a seasoned author, together we explore the ingredients we must bring together to make a story sparkle, harnessing them via group discussion and focused twenty-minute blocks for writing. Naturally, there’s a great deal to get through in the day, however, it’s this immersion that energises the creative process.
Workshop goal: working on either your own idea or one we can create together, you will develop your story throughout the day, ending up with a complete piece of work.
This workshop is a fun, inspiring and a great fun day of learning, at the end of which you will have written, from scratch (or completed) your Christmas story. And there’s nothing like being in the company of fellow creatives for inspiration, motivation, learning and to really develop ourselves as a writer.
