Creative Writing Workshop at Al Riwaq Art Space (Bahrain)
Date: 10 June 2011

The main objective of the workshop is to demonstrate the power of utilizing one’s imagination and diversity in constructing new stories. It will focus on an organic approach to creative writing through which the participants will be will engage in discussions, exercises and group work to achieve the set targets.

The workshop, as explained above, will not follow the traditional structure in writing. It will look at fiction, story and creative writing beyond the basic elements: plot, character, description, dialogue etc.

These elements will be introduced indirectly through the workshop via a number of exercises. Participants will be advised to devise their own unique structure of writing, in so much as a child might build a Lego toy, they might not create the exact same structure on the toy’s box, but they will create a unique and individual one that reflects them.
