MARION is celebrating 30 years with a Spring/Summer season of writerly adventures, including this full-day workshop with Kaaron Warren, a multi-award-winning master of the short story.
About the workshop:
Join multi-award winning story teller Kaaron Warren as she leads you through the ups and downs of creating short fiction. Starting with the spark of inspiration, we’ll find the right voice for your story and build characters who come to life on the page. Through interactive creative exercises, dedicated writing time and focussed editing techniques, we’ll finish with stories that will impress your readers and satisfy you as a writer.

Shirley Jackson award-winner Kaaron Warren published her first short story in 1993 and has had fiction in print every year since, selling more than 150 stories in that time.
She has published six multi-award winning novels: Slights, Walking the Tree, Mistification, The Grief Hole, Tide of Stone and The Underhistory and seven short story collections, her most recent being Spirit Level, an artbook with Monica Carroll. Her stories have won many Australian awards been shortlisted for the World Fantasy Award and the Stoker, and appeared in both Ellen Datlow’s and Paula Guran’s Year’s Best anthologies.
