Join me for some Creative Writing in the January 2021 School Holidays

Holidays are the perfect time to get creative! And to polish up on those writing skills…. But shh! don’t tell the kids – because FUN is the name of the game in these Workshops, they’ll never know they’re learning at the same time.

School Holiday Workshops are highly personalised – I want to see kids and teens feeling proud of the writing they produce, so the workshops are as individualised as possible. This also means they can work on whatever writing their heart desires, or your wishes as a parent.

Any topic, genre or writing technique can be covered, as well as the very popular Write a Book sessions. Please get in touch if you’d like to discuss your child’s specific needs or wants for their workshop. The main aim is for your child to leave feeling inspired, passionate and motivated about writing.

Workshops are run in 1.5-hour sessions, one-on-one via Skype, Zoom or FaceTime. You can book as many as you like, according to your schedule. If your little author is keen to write a book, you could think about booking a couple of workshops in a row (3 works well), so we can make good headway into (or even finish) it.

We can write novels, produce stellar competition pieces, poems and short stories, create movie scripts and write creative non-fiction books. Or, we can simply have fun with creative writing excercises, exploring all different kinds of writing, from humour (always popular), to journaling, to journalism, to character development, and the list goes on!

“My daughter really loved it & came home super inspired!!! She’s started typing up Chapter 1 which is very exciting.”

“My daughter has done a couple of the Creative Writing Workshops which she’s loved. Felicity tells the kids at the Writing Workshops are not school (ie there are no boring spelling or punctuation lessons!) – it is fun and about being creative. And, by all accounts, it was definitely fun!  However – school has benefited too. Her marks in comprehension and creative writing sky-rocketed, without her even thinking she’d been putting in extra effort!  So, both mother and daughter love these sessions. Long will we continue!”

MeMeMe-Memoir Memoir is the most popular genre in publishing today and thus must be looked at in our Writer’s Groups!

The Amazingly Awful Antagonist! The inspirations come from far and wide in this class as we conjur up the most annoying, dastardly characters we can think of.

What In The World? We will discuss creating the world for your story, using setting and scene in this Group. Particularly of interest to Fantasy buffs.
