Creative writer, Dr Tawnya Selene Renelle, and Paul Bristow, Director and Creative Producer of Magic Torch Comics, will lead an experimental writing experience where participants will be taken on a journey through queer heritage and identity. The stories, drawings, and texts that are created during the evening will be turned into a mini comic book.Please bring an object to the workshop which represents your identity, your heritage, or your queer experience. Please also bring your preferred method of writing and drawing (laptop, pen, coloured pens, paper etc).Dr Renelle will lead you through a series of creative exercises that will give you space to examine your object, your experiences, and your heritage.
