Participants are encouraged to follow the full course, however it is also possible to drop-in to individual workshops

Scribbling: Generating Material (Masterclass 1)

This workshop focuses on generating the raw material for writing through quick and playful exercises; drawing upon participant’s existing knowledge and experience as well as the material and sensual world.

Skeletons: Structural Experiments (Masterclass 2)

This workshop builds on the first to consider how the use of traditional and experimental forms of narrative structure can transform fragments of text into a body of writing.

Scratching: Editing Forms (Masterclass 3)

In this final workshop we explore practical and creative forms of editing, bringing writing closer to being publication-ready. If you have not attended a previous workshop on this course, please bring a piece of writing-in-progress with you.
