This is a weekend course over two days — please only join if you can attend both days.
This workshop will build a cohort effect among its participants, and build lasting connections between some of them and the facilitator who has a track record of developing queer writers. This course focuses on stories centred around bodies and practices that may go misunderstood in more mainstream workshop spaces, such as sex-positive/kink themes, or stories around trans characters.
This course will involve writing and sharing. It will develop those with a writing practice and introduce key concepts to those who wish to try creative writing for the first time.
Workshop facilitator Olumide Popoola has published essays, poetry, a novella, a short story collection, and a play. Her critically acclaimed novel When We Speak of Nothing was published by Cassava Republic Press in 2017.
