Help On Hand For Local Writers
Writers and would-be authors can get inspiration from a series of workshops starting in July. The Calderdale Writers’ Roadshows offer something for everyone – from talks and discussions to one-to-one sessions with authors and the chance to meet other writers and publishers.
The first roadshow is at Hebden Bridge Library on Sunday 5th July. It includes a session with author Jill Liddington on writing history, and a choice of workshops including memoir writing, short story writing and romantic fiction.
Whether you’re an established writer, need some help getting started, or have just never shown your work to anyone, the workshops offer encouragement and support at all levels.
Further workshops are at Brighouse Library on Saturday 1st August, the Fielden Centre in Todmorden on Saturday 5th September and Central Library, Halifax, on Saturday 10th October. Each workshop costs £20 (or £15 concessions), including lunch. You can also book one to one sessions with authors to talk about your own work, for an extra £10.
For more information or to book a place, pick up a leaflet from local libraries, or contact Anna Turner on 01422 392606 or by email: anna.turner@calderdale.gov.uk
