Date: Saturday, 9th February (Session 1), Sunday 10th February (Session 2)
Time: 10:30 – 12:30 (both days)
Venue: Elphinstone College, Seminar Room 2
Conducted by: Neeru Nanda
The premise of this workshop is that all children can cook up great stories (parents, don’t we know that!!) but when it comes to writing them out they flounder. So, on Day 1 we will generate an original story (on a title to be given in the workshop), which the kids will write out at home. On Day 2 we will discuss each child’s story against the background of Creative Writing. The 3 best stories will be posted on the Kala Ghoda Gazette.
