Become the champion of storytelling in one short workshop that is sure to leave your narrative shining.

Workshop format:

• Brainstorming/warm up activity
• Planning of stories to encourage exciting starts, develop rising tension and ensure well-rounded endings
• Discussion. Have you structured your story? Have you planned a satisfying ending?
• Brainstorm the use of language and sentence structure to create tension, description, and dialogue.
• Drafting a short narrative piece.
