GOOD STORIES
The Good Stories Intensive Workshop has been offered at Hobart Festival of Women Writers for the past six years.
Esther Cohen, one of the founding Participating Writers of Hobart Festival of Women Writers has developed this workshop especially for our participants.
This workshop is about stories: good and very good, about writing them, telling them, and hearing them.
What is a story? Together we will discuss what stories are, and what they can do. The Lubavitcher Rebbe once said there are 72 stories. In this workshop we’ll look at what they are.
