Your First Story

A comprehensive short story workshop with writer Heba Khamis

Our first stories often hold a special place in our hearts as they reveal a lot about who we are. They might capture a fleeting moment that has shaped us to this day. While we may forget many of our stories, the first ones remain etched in our memories.

The workshop explores the concepts of narrative writing, including its tools, how to develop them and how to use these tools to write a comprehensive short story. The workshop also provides an opportunity for sharing the texts we write during the sessions.

Workshop days:

Thursday 5th  – Friday 6th of October
Thursday 12th – Friday 13th of October

From 7:00 to 9:00 PM
