Workshop Outline

In this workshop you’ll discuss what makes writing ‘good’. You’ll explore how to take the story in your head and transfer it onto the page by manipulating the writers’ creative material – words. We look at the sort of things that can stop readers from reading and then how to make your writing 'gorgeous' throughout your work.

This workshop is run by Budding Writers in partnership with The Writers Bureau.
