A Guided Writing Group with Sarah Armstrong (SOLD OUT)
Byron Writers Festival is pleased to launch its second seasonal block of its Guided Writing Group with author Sarah Armstrong. Every Wednesday evening for four weeks participants will meet for 1.5 hours of power. Sarah will prompt the group in writing exercises with the simple aim of putting pen to paper. Most of the time will be dedicated to writing with time for feedback from the group on a couple of short pieces each week.
Please note: this is a guided writing group aimed at helping you get words down on paper, as opposed to a workshop with specific learning outcomes and course materials.
When: 4 x Wednesdays from 6pm - 7.30pm
Dates: 12, 19, 26 October & 2 November
Price: $140 members/ $180 non-members (equates to $35/$45 per session)
