CreativeWriting-Literary Workshops

Participants of the workshops will attain an orientation on how to develop ideas, how to judge one's own writing, how one could become a critical reader aiming to be a writer and making writing as a career in life. Master of ceremonies is Uppsala fristadförfattare Anisur Rahman, poet and journalist from Bangladesh.

The workshop is open for all.
 
Guest authors will give feedback and make comments on the texts submitted by the participants during the workshop.
 
This Uppsala workshop on creative writing will focus on the following basic questions and at the same time providing necessary pointers and observations to encourage Uppsala talents in the mission of
literature: Am I talented enough?; How should I educate myself?; Can I make living from writing?; How can I know if I am really a writer?

When a talent can know himself as a writer, he will have nothing to be worried in the survival in his committed mission of writing. I am hopeful and convinced enough, this workshop will meet with this challenge.

Guest authors will share talk and share ideas about their own writing and becoming a writer along side focusing pm basic technique and considerations of writing notably poetry, novel, short story, essay, drama and journalistic pieces.

1. On January 27, at 4.30, a brief launching ceremony will be arranged.

2. On May 27, there will be a literary programme called Uppsala Spring Poetry Festival at City Library to mark the success of semester.
