25.01.2022 School Holidays are upon us, and that means writing workshops! We're running two sessions - one for primary students and another for high school and college students.

25.01.2022 We've been talking about plotting vs pantsing a lot in our last couple of sessions. I think we're all neutral plotter to true plantsers in our group! But we all started out full pantsers. Pantsing is when you fly by the seat of your pants (little to no plotting), and plantsers are those who plot loosely and are open to going with the flow.

25.01.2022 Avery had an absolute blast at the first Ink Slingers yesterday! Come along in two weeks to join the fun!

24.01.2022 Which is scarier: ghosts or editors?

24.01.2022 I do love done good wordplay! Does anyone else remember homophone fun with Amelia Bedelía books?

23.01.2022 4-6pm at Stories Bookshop tomorrow afternoon!

22.01.2022 Do you have that one OTP (One True Pairing) that stands above all others? Or do you have an entire armada of ships of various shapes and sizes coexisting?

21.01.2022 While we would never condone underage drinking (*cough cough*), we do think a candle to combat writer's block would be a fantastic idea! Do you have a preferred method?

20.01.2022 Snoopy as Writer gets me every time.

16.01.2022 Term Two starts on Wednesday May 1st at Stories Bookshop 4-6pm.

16.01.2022 I killed a character last night and it was glorious. Do you try and keep each of your precious characters alive or do you bask in the glorious sadness and pain of your readers?

15.01.2022 What? It's already time for Term Two of Ink Slingers?! See you tomorrow!

11.01.2022 This quote is attributed to Joss Whedon. Why do you write?

10.01.2022 What are some of the ways for characters to interact with the world to convey meaning to your audience? Does bravery come with a way of holding yourself? If someone leans their head against a cool wall, what feeling does that imply?

09.01.2022 Brace yourselves: this Wednesday (March 13), we're back at Stories Bookshop from 4pm-6pm.

08.01.2022 Some writing advice from Kate DiCamillo. She wrote the Winn-Dixie novels, The Tale of Desperaux, and, my personal favourite of hers, Flora & Ulysses. Step one of being an author is showing up!

07.01.2022 Anyone else have this problem? I can't wait for the next Ink Slingers when we'll workshop some setting descriptions!

06.01.2022 Ink Slingers is still on tomorrow at Stories Bookshop from 4-6pm. See you there!

03.01.2022 Writing is important. Not just because you'll probably go crazy if you try to keep everything in your head. But because stories are great.

03.01.2022 Avery is counting down with excitement! Will we see you there?

01.01.2022 This one made me laugh! FF was actually my gateway drug to taking up writing again, so I'll never look too far down my nose at it. There are some really talented people out there!
