The course will utilize a combination of tuition, examples and writing exercises, and will cover topics including scene vs. summary, sensory detail, imagery and prose style as elements of ‘showing.’ This empowering course will give you the tools to enrich your prose and allow it to make a visceral and lasting impression on the reader. Open to writers of fiction and non-fiction. Presented with support from the Surf Coast Shire Small Grants Program.
