"I've always wanted to write."
"My sister told me I should write down some of those funny family stories I tell."
"I find that I remember observations of people in the airport."
"I always thought I might like to write."
"I have a secret stash of poems."
We are all human, and human beings tell stories. This makes us all writers. Whether you have years of experience and published work under your belt, or you can't stop thinking about that story you wrote in Grade 11, or even if you've never put pen to paper before, know that you are a storyteller, and you are a writer.
Writing together in workshop supports creativity and exploration, and our workshops provide a safe environment where new writing is nurtured and encouraged.
Fernwood Writers offers writing workshops in beautiful Victoria, British Columbia, using the Amherst Writers & Artists method.
The AWA method was developed by Pat Schneider, author of Writing Alone and With Others, and welcomes writers of all skill levels and life experience. Workshops provide a safe space in a small group setting to develop your writing and explore your creativity.
