Fiction and Fairy Lights

Ever dreamed of writing a story but didn’t know where to start?

This friendly and relaxed workshop is designed for new writers who want to explore fiction without feeling overwhelmed. You’ll be guided step-by-step through the foundations of storytelling, with simple, practical exercises to help you get words on the page.

Together, we’ll explore how to turn ideas into compelling stories, create characters your readers will care about, and build the confidence to start writing your first chapter.

There’s no pressure, no judgement, and no experience required. This is a supportive space to see what’s possible and begin your writing journey.

By the end of the session, you’ll leave with:

  • A clear story idea you’re excited about
  • Tools to develop characters and plot
  • The confidence to keep writing beyond the workshop

Perfect for anyone who’s ever said, “I’d love to write a book… but I don’t know how.”
