A New Year, and a new creative writing class with local author Sharon Thompson
Six-week course coming soon to Greencastle Community Centre, with all budding writers welcome
Have you ever fancied yourself as the next Roddy Doyle or Claire Keegan? Well, why not start the New Year by joining a new creative writing class in Inishowen?
‘The Write Idea’ begins at Greencastle Community Centre on Monday, January 19, and it will run from 7pm until 8.30pm each evening for a period of six weeks, with beginners and emerging writers welcome.
The course, which will have a focused but friendly atmosphere, is being run by celebrated Moville author Sharon Thompson, who has published a number of acclaimed novels in recent years.
During each 90-minute class, participants will be encouraged to explore ways to write their ideas; Find and develop their own writing voice and style; and Learn techniques to develop that style.
‘The Write Idea’ also provides a chance to mix with other writers and get feedback, as well as finding out how you can get your work published.
With a New Year already upon us, 2026 could be the perfect time to try something you’ve always wanted to, in the company of other like-minded literary folk.
To book your place, please call Greencastle Community Centre on 07493 81054 or email: [email protected]. The cost is €35 and the course is open to everyone aged 18 and over.
