The Story Builders Workshop
This writing workshop encourages children to embrace their imaginations by creating their own characters and building a narrative around them. I aim to make sessions fun and interactive and the children will have the opportunity to buy a signed copy of my debut novel, 'Witchdaft'. I provide a half-day session which can be tailored to suit your school's requirements.
Workshop Breakdown
The Story Builders Workshop is divided into three sections over the course of the morning or afternoon, starting with an introduction to storytelling. I will provide guidance and creative methods throughout the rest of the workshop, helping students form their fictional worlds.
Author Talk and Q&A
A talk with the year groups of your choice, explaining my writing journey and providing tips for budding writers. I also read a couple of chapters of 'Witchdaft' and give children the opportunity to any questions they have.
Character Class
The children will create their own character to spark an idea for a narrative. This character profiling can often determine where their story ends up!
Storyboard Session
With their character in mind, children can make a chapter storyboard to create a rough guide for where their story is headed. From there, they can begin their adventure!
Pricing
The Story Builders Workshop is priced at £150, and session times can be tailored to suit your school's requirements.
