Creative Writing Programme 

Jo in chair cropped 002Welcome to Hastings District Libraries Creative Writing Programme

Join us through the year on a creative writing journey, mentored by writing instructor Jo Morris, to develop your unique literary voice.

Jo will present a series of themed writing workshops, helping you learn to write in a vivid and engaging style that connects with readers.

We have two workshops set for 2022 - the Introduction to Memoir Writing, as well as a follow-on workshop; Advanced Memoir Writing.

Registrations are now full for the Advanced Memoir Writing series with Jo Morris. If you are interested in any further Advanced Memoir Writing workshops then please email us at hdlprogrammes@hdc.govt.nz. We will be in touch should any places open up, or if any future sessions are planned.

Masks are required to be worn in the libraries, except by those who are exempt.
