Katinka Smit: Workshop: Writing from Place
The best historical writing imagines what it was like for those who lived then; it is the day to day lives of the past that fascinate the most. Through a selection of sources, participants will understand what makes for vibrant historical writing, focusing on place and the body lived. Participants will then apply these principals in writing exercises, with an emphasis on creative writing, using local history sources. Suitable for poets, fiction and creative non-fiction writers.
