    The Writing Project is a creative non-fiction workshop that helps overcome writing challenges. From learning to paraphrase to perfecting your paragraphs to editing faster and more efficiently. 

    The workshop approaches writing as a physical laboratory where you get tools that allow you to deconstruct your work, then use a variety of exercises and one on one mentoring to rebuild your writing stronger. 

    Discover your writerly voice and accelerate your writing process with practical writing advice and personalised feedback. 

    The program focuses on developing skills that lead to structured drafts, articulate sentences, and, importantly, clarity of communication.
