Write with Me
Via Zoom, these open writing sessions are designed for Gippsland Writers Network members to work on their WIP or start something new.
After a welcome and introduction, you’ll be invited to work on your project in a series of timed sprints before catching up for a short debrief at the end. Prompts are available if you want!
This session will be led by GWN President, Vicky Daddo. A Zoom link will be sent to registered participants nearer the time.

Write for your Life: Workshops and Author Panel
Moe Library: Saturday 17 February 9.30am to 3.30pm
A friendly introduction to writing life stories, suitable for writers of all levels of experience.
Memory, family and local history, and connection to place can help people find their own stories. Join us for a day of workshops and a panel to find your own voice. Our three amazing writers have used their experiences to shape compelling narratives and to help others tell their own stories.
