Wednesday Adults Creative Writing – Term 3

Do you have a story waiting to be told or simply want space and time to get your ideas onto the page?

This course is designed for beginners but would also suit those who have experience and want inspiration from other writers. Being part of a group is immensely helpful at any level, whether you want to bounce ideas, receive valuable feedback, or work in an environment that gives you the motivation to follow through with your goals.

This 8-week course is divided into different genre,s such as feature writing and poetry, to give a broad overview and opportunity to experiment. Within these genres we will explore aspects such as plot structure, character development, setting, mood, writing good dialogue and creating internal and external conflict that engages your audience.

During this course, you will be supported to your personal writing goal with feedback and guidance in a group setting.  From there you can plot the first draft of your short story, novel, novella, screenplay, stage play, or even a short collection of poems. There are opportunities to be supported and submit your work to various Aotearoa based writing competitions.
