Free Workshops for writers in Belfast and in Inis Oírr

February 15, 2013

Workshops for Irish language writers organised in partnership with Áras Éanna, Inis Oírr, Aran, Co. Galway.
Date: Saturday, 9 March 2013
Venue: Áras Éanna, Inis Oírr, Aran, Galway.
Workshop Directors: Micheál Ó Conghaile and Jackie Mac Donncha
This workshop is aimed towards established writers and young/new writers who have not yet published a book but show potential. Places will also be offered to a handful of established writers, which will benefit everyone.
We invite those who wish to participate in the workshop to send an example of their work: short story, five or six poems ar a short excerpt from a novel (novels for teenagers included) to the Assistant Editor CIC, Áine Ní Cholchúin, at the address below BEFORE the 1 March 2012.
The best works will be selected and will be discussed and evaluated at the workshop. Each story will be sent to every writer (attending the workshop) beforehand so that they have a chance to read them. In this fashion all participants can play an active role in the workshop, and learn from the strengths and weaknesses of each other. We will only have space for ten writers at most. The workshop is free but applicants will be responsible for their own travel costs and accomodation.
