MANI LIT FEST
Beginning Writing
7 Ideas to Get You Started
with Deborah Swift
10.30am Saturday 7th October (duration approx 2 hours)

In this workshop we will write fast and furiously to get some ideas down on paper, using seven different starting points.
We will be writing in seven different ways too - a poem, some flash fiction, the opening of a novel, a historical vignette, a memoir, a fable, and a human interest report.
This is the equivalent of an artist making rapid sketches to get ideas for a painting they'd like to develop, and is a way to find your writing 'voice'.
Bring paper and pen or your writing device, reading glasses if you need them, and be prepared to surprise yourself.
Everyone welcome, including total beginners
Workshops are free
