Got Keen? Open it in the appAbout
Through selected readings and examples, participants have the opportunity to discuss the relationship between place and belonging and try a range of activities and writing exercises focusing on landscape and description, including close observations of people and home.
The workshop is open to writers of fiction and non-fiction, including short fiction and long-form fiction writers, and writers working in other forms such as non-fiction essays, poetry, graphic narratives and hybrid work.
This is an excellent opportunity to inspire new work, or to continue building a piece of writing with a focus on deepening place and belonging.
