Let’s get creative with fiction writing

Vision Australia Library are excited to launch our first writing program for 2025, expertly facilitated by the fabulous Andrea Rowe.

We invite our budding writers to join us on a creative journey into the wonderful world of fiction writing.

This course is designed to assist you in discovering and developing your own personal Writer’s Toolbox. It's a fantastic opportunity to equip yourself with the tools to embark on a creative writing journey. Fill your Writer's Toolbox with brainstorming ideas, plot prompts, memorable characters, and enticing settings.

Throughout the four-week program, Andrea will focus on writing from the senses. This is a powerful writing tool, providing writers with the ability to ‘show’ not ‘tell’, and drawing on all their senses to enhance their writing.
