Next Journalism + south africa literature

Short Story Writing Course with Chan-Sam (South Africa)

Dates: 24 February - 26 May 2011

Course starts in Feb 2011

The magic of stories, heard first in childhood or adulthood, stays forever. Lines, scenes, characters remain as guests in the mind and we can recall them at will in old age, in despair, in joy, in love or in grief.

This course will help you to:

  • Write stories with characters, menacing or lovable.
  • Suspense-filled plots or simply told tales.
  • Develop your narrative voice.
  • Meet with editors and publishers.
  • Submit stories ready for publication.

Dates: Thursdays - Feb 24th; Mar 24th; Apr 28th; May 26th 2011.

Time: 9am to 1pm

Venue: Muizenberg – False Bay Rendezvous

R280 per workshop (R1000 if booked and paid in advance)

Chan-Sam has published stories in anthologies in the UK and South Africa. Mr. Mohani is her preview solo collection. She has delivered workshops, readings and performances in South Africa, UK, USA, Egypt, Tanzania, Suriname and the Netherlands.
