Tasmanian Writers’ Centre
It’s school holiday time again – and if you’re looking for ways to keep the kids inspired, we have you covered.
We’re sending some of the finest writers in the state out to libraries all the way from Currie to Kingston. Between July 7-14, your children can enjoy the experience of creating their own stories in free writing workshops. Many teaching the classes are popular children’s authors in their own right, including Anne Morgan who had a chat with us ahead of her workshop (read on for more). All kids aged 5-17 are welcome and you can find details about your local event here.
There is also an opportunity for children to enter their stories into the Young Creative Writers Awards for 2016. A book with the award-winning entries will be published at the end of the year, supported by the Commissioner for Children. Entries are open until the end of the month.
And for the grown-ups, why not indulge in some quality reading time? We’ve just launched our new Recommended Reads list on our website. It will feature four books each month we think you’ll love, and we’ll give you the chance to win one. Learn more in this newsletter below or jump straight to this month’s list.
Happy holidays!
