Join us in February for this programme series all about developing craft techniques in your writing!
These online craft sessions invite creative writers to think more deeply and deliberately about the craft techniques in their work. Though they may include generative writing exercises, the Developing Your Craft programme diverges from our general writing workshops as they will focus on close reading and discussion of craft. Depending on the facilitator, these sessions may also touch on different theoretical approaches to your writing. For each session, you will receive resources including a pre-reading list a week in advance. Fees for each session are suggested donation of £10 or more (£5 concession), except for the memoir course (suggested £20 or more per day).
Session dates and times
Keynote and Reception
Our Developing your Craft programme will culminate in an in-person Keynote by the award-winning author Anthony Capildeo. We will follow Anthony’s keynote with a short open-mic and a catered reception. Join us for a wonderful evening of craft discussion, readings, small bites, and drinks at Augustine United Church. This session is open to everyone – you do not have to be a writer of colour to attend. Suggested donation £10 or more (£5 concession).
Before you book:
The Developing Your Craft programme is for writers of colour based in the UK (Scotland, England, Northern Ireland, and Wales)
All sessions, except the keynote, will be held over Zoom with a maximum of 30 participants.
Sessions longer than an hour will include a comfort break.
Each session has a suggested donation amount, but please register for free or for a smaller amount if that suits your needs. No questions asked.
Registering for this course means you agree to our safer spaces policy.
