Intro to Creative Writing: Light My Fire

Sunday, 12 October 2025: 10am-3pm, Bunya House. Course Fee: $239. Grow your skills with this small-group course presented by Lauren Elise Daniels. A popular starter or a writing refresher, this workshop is suitable for budding writers across all genres: poetry, short stories, novels, memoir, travel writing, even ‘how to’ and personal development articles. We welcome beginners but don’t treat you like one. Our topics aim to lift your awareness around your strengths, invite freshness into your technique, and bolster your knowledge. We will:

--Practice literary techniques/devices through writing exercises.
--Explore common issues like ‘purple prose’ and ‘show don’t tell’ as we sharpen our authentic voices.
--Discuss focus and perspective.
--Unwrap theme and character as we apply models for structure and plot.
--Discuss why all the great writers study fiction and poetry.
--Deconstruct a classic working story.
