Elsewhere: Writing Imagined Worlds That Feel Real

How do we create imagined worlds that feel vivid, lived-in and emotionally true?

In this creative writing workshop at Catford Library, award-winning author Salma Ibrahim will explore the art of world-building through place, memory, atmosphere and sensory detail.

No previous creative writing experience is required.
