Teens Creative Writing Workshop, 'Genre Mash Up'

Wednesday 15th, 22nd, 29th April | 6:30 - 8:30pm | £20

Tutor: Wendy Sinnamon

What happens when a romance unfolds in the middle of a zombie outbreak? When a cowboy rides into a futuristic surveillance state? When a reality TV competition hides a dark supernatural secret?

During this three week workshop, we won’t just write stories, we’ll invent something entirely new. We’ll start by pulling two completely different genres out of a hat and over the three weeks, we will fuse them together into a bold and unpredictable narrative. Along the way, we’ll discover what makes horror terrifying, romance irresistible, thrillers gripping and fantasy unforgettable.

We will learn how to develop dynamic characters, construct high-stakes plots and craft cinematic opening scenes to hook a reader in.

This is a space for big ideas, creative risks and fearless storytelling. No experience is required, just curiosity. For lovers of books, movies, games and everything in between.

This workshop is suitable for age 12+
