Our attempts to write are too often straight-jacketed. We don’t write because we’re frozen by what we think are the rules and regulations of writing when all we really need to do is write. As Julie Cameron in her wonderful The Right to Write says: ‘Writing goes much better when we don’t work at it so much … For me, writing is like a good pair of pajamas (sic) – comfortable. In our culture, writing is more often costumed in a military outfit.’ (p3).

In these workshops I will explore with you the ways you can loosen those straight-jacket laces, diminish the angst, and discover the joy of writing short stories, poems, opinion pieces, blog posts and/or memoir. Build your knowledge and confidence by developing your own writing toolbox, discovering your own voice, but most of all in a safe and respectful environment write what you have always wanted to write.

Testimonial

Diane Martin, Write Freely, Thurgoona 2016

I am amazed by the changes and confidence in my writing. This has happened while participating in a six week writing workshop. I felt comfortable and happy in each session.
The improvement in how I write is amazing, plus the joy of writing. This has been achieved because of the Write Freely workshop program run by Robyne Young. She gives you confidence to expand your writing and to push yourself beyond what you thought you were capable of.

Thank You Robyne
