For the love of writing
I love writing workshops. I really, really do.
Living in an isolated and sparsely populated place like the Northern Territory means that when the opportunity comes along to participate in a literary event or writers workshop of any kind, you jump in and make the most of it.
Tomorrow I'll be attending two workshops ('Writing Historical Fiction' and 'Come to your Senses: The art of sensory writing') presented by internationally published, Australian author, Linda Jaivin and hosted by the NT Writers Centre.
I'm looking forward to these workshops like you wouldn't believe. Spending six hours with like-minded people, learning from an accomplished author and getting to do that thing that I like most (writing that is); what better way to spend a Saturday?

What a fantastic experience it would have been. How did the workshops go? Have they inspired you?
The workshops were great and Linda was really lovely, however I would have liked it to be a little more hands-on. I really enjoy being able to immediately put into practice what I've learnt and unfortunately the workshop program didn't allow much of this. Nevertheless, I still enjoyed it thoroughly and look forward to doing some writing this weekend.
