Transform: 7 days of flash fiction
Are you looking to transform your writing practice this summer? Then look no further!
Transform your writing habit and write a flash fiction story every day with Author and Director of the Oxford Flash Fiction Prize, Freya Morris. We will be focusing on creating first drafts under the theme of ‘transformations’ for the upcoming summer competition, which is in partnership with the Bodleian Libraries exhibition ‘Kafka: Making of an Icon‘.
You don’t have to share your writing or offer feedback. So we invite you to show up in any way you need that helps you write, whether that’s PJs, black screens, food and drink, or duvets. Creativity comes when we feel the most relaxed to create, so show up on your own terms.
The course was wonderful. When I first signed up I didn’t know what to expect, and was afraid it would be intimidating and I’d be out of my depth, but Freya did a wonderful job and I felt very at ease. I feel very inspired to write. Thank you!
