A school holiday writing workshop
Writers are liars. They’re really good liars. But telling the perfect lie is also about telling the truth, so in this workshop we’ll be coming up with the most outrageous fibs and working out how to make them believable, as well as playing with a number of fun and frantic writing exercises designed to unleash young imaginations.
Award-winning children’s book author, James Roy has travelled the world presenting to schools about the joy and universal appeal of storytelling. His workshops focus on finding ideas in the everyday, and on building characters. He will be using the NERAM collections as inspiration for the workshop.
