Have you ever considered trying your hand at a short story, a novel, or a poem? The thought has occurred to many of us, and maybe we have even set pen to paper, only to find ourselves beset by myriad questions: Can I start from nowhere, with nothing? How is the process supposed to work? And how can I improve what I already have? This intensive workshop taught by Amal Chatterjee and Jane Draycott, award-winning authors and creative writing tutors at the University of Oxford, addresses all these questions and more.<\/p>\n

Over the course of 2 days, participants will gather from 10am to 5pm, discussing their work in a challenging and supportive atmosphere as well as engaging in writing exercises designed to expand their creative horizons. Novice and experienced writers alike are welcome to participate\u2014no previous experience is necessary! The workshop can be booked as a 2-day package or for a single day, with Day 1 devoted to fiction and Day 2 to poetry.<\/p>\n
