Writing Identity

Though Australia is a multicultural nation, this diversity is often absent in print and on screen. This session encourages students to find creative inspiration from their own lived experiences and cultural contexts. Cath will talk about her own writing journey, through print media, film & TV and literature.

 

Topics covered:

Understanding what writing is for you. Personal timeline: Practical tips for finding ideas. History, place and point of view. The different shapes stories can take. Cath’s writing process and preoccupations. Writing and the real world
