is proud to organize a creative writing workshop for young adults
(age 12 and older) who have a flair for creative writing in English.
The workshop will be conducted by the critically acclaimed Jakarta based writer,
Amol Titus, whose works include Darkness at Bamiyan, A Summit at
Jungfraujoch and Modern Traumas. He recently presented his works
at the Ubud Writes Festival and is also a columnist for The Jakarta Post and
Tempo. During the workshop he will share the
delights of classical literature through readings from novels,
plays and poetry. He will share insights into the techniques used
by some of these great writers including story ideas, development
of characters and situations, lyricism and symbolism. He willgive
examples from famous works of suspense, comedy and tragedy.
The workshop will also teach you how to
build your vocabulary and develop a reading habit. It will also
include readings from Asian authors who
have
written in English to contrast styles. Amol Titus will also share
his own experiences in developing his passion for writing and some
of the disciplines involved in being a writer. Participants have
opportunities to seek clarifications and guidance on their own writing
preferences.
