Skills Development Workshops with Keith Jebb and Lesley McKenna

Luton Literature Book Festival Presents:

Are you a budding author and need some expert advice on developing your writing skills? These Skills Development Workshops are designed to enhance your writing abilities through practical exercises, expert guidance, and interactive discussions.

The workshop offers a hands-on, supportive environment designed to help you grow as a writer and refine your skills.

Keith Jebb and Lesley McKenna lead this workshop, based on found material and flash fiction: guiding participants on how to use material that you find or source—song titles, lists, quotations, etc.—to shape a piece of short fiction, and to make you go out of your comfort zone in your writing. Participants should bring something to write with and on.

This event is part of the Luton Literature Book Festival https://www.culturetrust.com/whats-on/luton-literature-book-festival

Funded by: Arts Council and Love Luton.
