The Brontë Festival of Women’s Writing 2021
Liz Flanagan Creative Writing Workshop (13 - 16 year olds)
Friday 30 July, 2.15 - 3.30pm
Tickets: £5
Join award-winning YA and children’s author Liz Flanagan in this creative writing workshop for 13-16 year olds. Liz is the author of Eden Summer which was nominated for the Carnegie Medal. Her novel Dragon Daughter won the 2019 Leeds Book Award and the Calderdale Book of the Year and its sequel, Rise of the Shadow Dragons, was published in May 2020.
Follow in the footsteps of the Brontës as you begin to imagine fantasy worlds peopled with memorable characters. Liz will lead participants through a series of informal prompts to generate ideas, create believable, memorable characters and you’ll be invited to begin a new story idea of your own. She will help you to kickstart your story, to shape and structure it and to make it fizz with life.
This workshop is for 13 - 16 year olds and will take place via Zoom. Full details of how to join will be sent to you once you have booked your place.
