Is writer’s block an issue for you? Do you get stuck occasionally? Don’t know how to start?
We’ll tackle some ways around that.
Then we’ll move on to some writing skills you can use every day:
You can gain inspiration and practical tips to make writing easier and more joyous.
Practise techniques to let your creative juices flow.
By the end of the workshop you can be ready to hone that story in your head or embark on a more enticing one.
Improve your writing:
Speed and ease the flow of words
We use the Chug Exercise to color your verbs and nouns and make showing almost as easy as telling.
Move the story off the screen or page.
Write the skeleton then flesh it out.
Bring a blank page or screen.
Some of your work that needs polishing. You don’t have to read it out but you must have some work you want to polish.
You will not be able to plug into the mains because cords are a hazard in the room. So bring your work on a tablet or laptop that can run two hours on battery or bring paper. Or both – they have benefits used side by side.
