Explore the art of storytelling through folklore, myth and the uncanny. Shedding Skins invites young writers to discover the core elements of story-building, develop their creative practice, and experiment with techniques inspired by folklore, transformation and strange tales. Through guided exercises and discussion, participants will gain tools to create compelling characters, settings and narratives of their own.
If you have young people in your life keen to learn about storytelling, writing craft and folklore, send them my way! For ages 12-17
