Detailed Depth Workshop - August 14th (1:00-2:30pm)

 

This workshop will be offered again in the future. If you’re interested in being the first to know about new workshops, please join my newsletter list here.


As Walt Disney said, “There is no magic in magic, it’s all in the details.”

Intentional details add depth to our stories. A few choice details can bring a scene to vivid life. A detailed description help your characters leap off the page into your reader’s imagination.

It’s also the little details that add magic to our stories. (That Disney bloke was onto something…)

But—what details could you include in your stories and narratives? Which ones might matter most?

Join me on August 14th as we write together and create toward more delightfully detailed stories!

This workshop is great for anyone who:

  • Likes to write a lot—or a little!

  • Wants to try out a single writing workshop (it’s a quick 1.5 hours)

  • Looks forward to writing within a small group (there will never be more than 8 writers in the workshop)

You can expect to leave the workshop with:

  • Actionable strategies for writing detail-driven narratives

  • At least a few paragraphs of new writing

  • Prompts to inspire your writing practice when you return home

  • A feeling of creative curiosity and possibility ✨

Where we’ll write:

This workshop will be at McTavish Academy of Art (1720 McTavish Rd). I’ll greet you at the door when you arrive!

Your workshop leader:

  • Hi, I’m Monika!

  • My short synopsis: I’m a freelance author of 50+ books for schools, and I firmly believe everyone is a writer. I also have a sky-high love for freshly-popped popcorn.

  • Want to get to know me better? I’ve got a mini bio here.

Want to join this workshop? Please bring with you:

  • A notebook and your favourite pen for writing. Or, if you prefer typing, please bring a digital device (eg. tablet, laptop).

  • Your enthusiasm and creativity!
