From choosing the format, type of structure, beginnings that hook readers, and using ‘show and tell’ techniques.
Bring your idea, writing pad and pens, and enthusiasm. This is a free event that is open to adults and young adults from high school-aged up.
Tāmaki Makaurau/Auckland-based writer Maria Gill has a Masters in Creative Writing and a Graduate Diploma of Journalism Studies, as well as a teaching degree.
