Workshop - The Short Story Writer's Starter Kit at West Cork Literary Festival


This workshop will run from Monday 15 to Wednesday 17 July, from 9.30am to 2.30pm each day with two breaks built in to each day.

This lively, interactive and incredibly practical workshop will equip you with everything you need to begin or continue your journey with the short story. Combining discussion, writing exercises and teaching drawn from Jan’s own experience participants can expect to explore all the components of the short story including character development, plot, structure, voice, editing and much more. Over the course of the sessions they’ll have a chance to develop and write their own short story, learn how to give and receive helpful editorial feedback on a work in progress and consider the importance of reading in terms of developing writing practice. Jan will also offer hard learnt advice on the publishing process. This workshop is suitable for both beginner writers and those keen to reinvigorate their writing practice.
