Like many
people in Newcastle and the Hunter I began my writing journey through Karen Whitelaw’s
creative writing courses through the Hunter WEA. I’d like to second her promotion of the
Newcastle Writer’s Festival and suggest you visit her blog, ‘The Writer’s Life’
to find out more about the Festival.
After I
finished the creative writing courses, I was keen to continue the writing group
process and took up a suggestion to start a writers group. Three years later we have evolved into a great
writers group that continues to help speed up the process of expanding and
improving each members writing.
We applied
last year to present a session at this year’s Newcastle Writers Festival, and
to our delight were accepted.
So on Sunday
at 3pm in the Mulubinba room of the Newcastle Town Hall we present our session:
The Next Level – How to
Take your Writing from Hobby to Publication.
We are one
of the four last sessions of the day. We would love
to see you there.
I will post
about how our session went after Sunday.
If people would like I will also post some of the information from my
segment which is - DON’T GO IT ALONE – where I talk about how a writers group
can help improve and expand your writing and help move toward publication.
I will be keen for any feedback you would
like to give.
See you all there on Sunday at 3pm
That's a great idea to share info on here about your section of the session! I think I'll do the same :-) Looking forward to hearing your section tomorrow! The practice run the other day was fantastic!
ReplyDeletethanks Jessie. Let's talk tomorrow about what to share after Sunday. I think our presentation is going to be great and very helpful to other writers. I'm really looking forward to being part of it.
