NOVELS – How do we get into writing a novel? What are the novels we like and why? What sort of novel do you want to write?
This workshop will look at different novel forms, help you create a structure for your novel and encourage other forms such as short stories to support your novel. We will also explore some writing styles through short workshops around dialogue and character.

About the workshop series
Our ESF Get Creative! Cultivate Programme workshops are open to everybody – no dress code, no qualifications. We strongly believe everybody is creative, everybody ‘writes’. Writing is what you think, say, see, touch, feel and do – you just need to choose how to express it. These workshops will be fun, engaging and accessible – valuing everyday creativity.
The focus will be on exploring ways to express yourself and find your voice, where your creativity is also part of your wellbeing. There will be opportunities to explore poetry, journaling, haiku, scriptwriting, blogging/vlogging, oral and written storytelling, novel writing and biography.
