Join Belfast-based writer Jan Carson for this interactive and informative workshop focusing on the mistakes almost every writer makes and how to avoid making them in your own writing. There’ll be space to look at how you approach the act of writing and identify areas where you could significantly improve upon your creative process, as well as time set aside to explore where your writing’s going wrong on a sentence by sentence basis. This workshop will be incredibly practical, easy to understand and full of hard-learnt advice. All participants should come with a working draft of a piece of writing they’re keen to edit. The workshop is for adults and is particularly aimed at novelists and short story writers though it will contain useful advice for everyone.
