Narrative Non-Fiction Workshop Series with Ale Prunotto
Are you ready to embark on a literary journey and elevate your narrative skills? Join us for an engaging non-fiction workshop series led by Ale Prunotto, our Writer in Residence! A local writer and anthropological researcher.
This series of workshops promises to be a dynamic exploration of the art of telling true stories.
Please note: This workshop series is now full! Thanks for your interest!
Workshop Highlights:
In these four engaging sessions, participants will explore what makes compelling narrative non-fiction. Each workshop will be a hands-on exploration of the craft: by practising both interviewing and being interviewed, we'll experience what it means to create a meaningful research relationship. We’ll also consider different possibilities for structure and technique, as well as reflect on the process as a group throughout.
