Event Description

Have a story in mind but don’t know how to shape it? Or staring at a blank page waiting for inspiration to strike? This welcoming two-part workshop is designed to help writers move past self-doubt and start getting words on the page.  

In the first session, you’ll explore where story ideas come from and learn how to shape them into a strong narrative foundation. Through guided prompts and in-session writing, you’ll begin crafting your story. 

The second session focuses on workshopping and refining your writing in a supportive group setting, with practical tips to help you keep developing your piece. 

For ages 16+

The Writers in Residence program is a pilot initiative for 2026, developed as a partnership between Kingston Arts, Kingston Libraries and Dingley Village Neighbourhood Centre, with the aim of growing and expanding the Artist in Residence opportunities available at Kingston.
