Creative writing masterclasses with Jane Rogers

Cosmia Festival

FREE writing masterclass for 14-17 year olds

Join Cosmia Festival and Jane Rogers for the perfect workshop for creative young people who love future fiction and want to write their own storiesJane will show you how to grab your reader’s attention, how to write about future threats like climate change, and how to create a future world which your readers will find convincing. There will be short exercises to get you started on two or three different stories. Numbers are limited, to give everyone a chance to speak. So the same session will be repeated on four days (Oct 26-29). Participants are invited to finish their stories in their own time, on the day of their workshop, and email them to Jane. On Friday 30th there will be an additional (free) feedback session for those who have sent in their stories. The workshop will take place over Zoom and any participants under 16 will be required to have parental consent to attend. The joining link will not be issued without the consent form being returned. We&#x27;ll email the form to you after you book your ticket.If you&#x27;ve not come across Jane before, this is her bio:Jane has written ten novels, including two dystopias. The Testament of Jessie Lamb tells the story of a teenage girl who shows incredible courage in the face of a pandemic that kills all pregnant women. It won the Arthur C Clarke Award. Body Tourists explores an experiment to put the digitally stored minds of dead people into the bodies of young volunteers, with both comic and tragic results. Jane also writes short stories and radio drama, and has taught writing to students of all ages. <a href="https://www.janerogers.info" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">www.janerogers.info </a>
