The
“because we love to get lost in a good story”
An intense writing workshop for aspiring writers that will take the participants through both, the mystical and the realistic realm of fiction writing. This unique module has been designed to cement a strong foundation of story writing fundamentals, as well as show new writers how to become a successful Author.
The workshop includes 4 full day classroom sessions (weekends) at our training centre in Pune and online assignments during the week.
Concepts and methodologies will be broken down into smaller modules such as: idea, characterization, setting, plot, treatment et al, and taught through interactive lectures followed by appropriate writing exercises.
To better understand these concepts and ensure that they become second nature, every student writer will begin to develop their own story ideas using the knowledge they have gained so far.
Along with the mentor’s guidance each student will select one story idea to write and develop into a completed and publishable short story. Each story will have a chance to get published in our forthcoming anthology.
