Facilitated by Fiona Murphy and co-facilitated by former Writer’s Space participant Shannon Anima, each session of this free writing course will focus on a different theme – from idea generation to developing compelling characters.
Using writing prompts and exercises, we’ll spend time writing in a fun and supportive environment. We will also chat about the writing life, including submitting work for publication and how to stay motivated!
In the final week, there will be a special Q&A session with a guest writer.

TESTIMONIALS
“This 6 week writing course has been absolutely wonderful. Fiona is a highly competent facilitator who delivered the context of each week’s lesson with perfection. I am walking away with more confidence to write my own autobiography and am actually quite sad that this writing group has come to an end it’s been my highlight of the week.”
