Library :: Workshop
Challenge Your Creative Writing
6:00 PM (America/Halifax)
Pictou Library (PARL)
Description:
Challenge Your Creative Writing, Pictou Library, 6-7 p.m. Join this group coaching workshop where we’ll talk about the ‘rules’ of writing and things we’ve learnt, heard or seen in our writing life that we now have ingrained into us. These are things that may lead us to believe we have to write a certain way, or feel we’re supposed to write about subjects, but really, we know deep down it just doesn’t feel right! We’ll be identifying the edges of the box that we’re in with our art, the invisible boundaries that we believe we can’t cross. We’ll be examining these cross-section points and boundary lines, asking ourselves why is that boundary there? Does it serve my writing? Is it helpful in giving me guidance/structure or is in inhibiting me? And we’ll discuss alternative ways to write and how to bend or break the rules of writing. As Pablo Picasso supposedly once said: “Learn the rules like a pro, so you can break them like an artist.” For more info, and to register, as space is limited, please call the library at 902-485-5021.
