Creative writing workshop with Cal Smyth

What’s your Backstory? Turning Real-life Stories into Fiction

Have you ever had your heart broken, witnessed a crime, or faced a life-changingevent? Are there real-life characters you imagine in a story or family mysteries you’d like to fictionalize?

In collaboration with Backstory Bookshop, crime novelist and scriptwriter Cal Smyth is running a one-off creative writing workshop where you learn the essentials of storytelling and get your words onto the page.

 Have you got your characters, setting and conflict in place?

How can you structure a plot?

What do your characters want?

 What do they really need?

 And what obstacles are they going to overcome?

All you need to bring is a pen, a notebook and a creative mind.

It’s free, but there are only 8 spaces, so sign up asap.
