Discover tools and techniques to make your prose come alive.

Rich, luscious writing is writing which has life in it—life on the page, and the life in the writing of it. In this one-day workshop for passionate writers, we’ll explore ways of making your words and characters sing. How do you make a character seem alive? How do you create a sense of place which is convincing? And how do you keep the sense of life and joy in your writing process?

Whether you’re working on short stories, a novel or a memoir, this inspiring class will help you find new ways into your writing. Using practical exercises, you’ll dream up scenes, play with images and flesh out characters. You’ll also learn how to boost productivity and find real joy in your writing.
Led by acclaimed novelist Kathryn Heyman, this inspiring class will help you discover your characters and find what you need to write on, with joy.
