With Tina Pisco
June 29th to July 3rd
10-1pm daily
€195
 
This summer school comprises five three-hour workshops, which will introduce students to the process and techniques of creative writing. Students will experiment with various types of writing, including short stories, fiction and poetry. They will also be encouraged to read their work aloud. This will give them the opportunity to appreciate the individuality of writing styles, and inspire them to experiment futher with their own work. Evaluative feedback will also be given if requested. During each workshop, students will be assigned writing exercises to develop the craft of dialogue and scene building. They will also be encouraged to access their memory as a source of inspiration for character creation and fiction.
