How to Start Your Creative Writing Journey
Details
New year, new goalz, and 2024 is all about CREATIVITY. If you've been wondering how to get started on the path of a creative writer, then this 2-hour workshop is for you!
Whether you're just starting out, or you've dabbled in writing but you want to be more committed to your creativity, or even if you're wondering whether there's a writer in you somewhere (spoiler alert: THERE IS) and you're curious about how to tempt them out... This workshop will give you some much-needed direction as well as inspire, uplift, and teach you how to call upon your endless well of creativity so you never run out of things to write about.
We will talk about what following the path of a writer means, how to start building a creative writing practice, how to find and develop ideas, and how to continue down this path into the future in a way that's right for YOU (because creativity is different for everyone).
Our session will include lots of exercises, advice, prompts, activities, and discussion to get your creativity flowing and help nurture your confidence as a writer.
You do not need to have anything specific that you wish to work on. All prompts and exercises can be done from absolute zero. At the same time, if you do have a story (or other project) in progress, then you can also use these prompts to explore your characters and the world they inhabit.
Writers who are interested in any and all styles & genres are welcome! Short stories, novels, scripts, poetry, creative nonfiction, memoir, thriller, romance, science fiction, fantasy, children's fiction... the possibilities are endless! And if you don't know what kind of writer you want to be yet, then this workshop will help you explore the possibilities available to you.
We will be meeting on Zoom. The link is available on the event page for people who have booked. Any questions about Zoom, just ask!
This session will be RECORDED. Everyone who books will get a link to the recording to watch later. Please note: this session will NOT be posted publicly to A Space to Write Youtube channel, so if you're interested in joining, you have to book!

Looking forward to starting the new year with a nice burst of creativity!
