Got some advice or ideas about writing to share?
The Royal City Literary Arts Society has issued a call for proposals for interactive workshops to take place in New Westminster in 2019. Some of the workshops will be scheduled for Saturday afternoons at the Anvil Centre, while others will be part of LitFest New West.
A write-up from the society notes that proposals should be centred on the art of writing. Topics may include (but aren’t limited to) the business/art of writing, prompts, poetry, fiction, non-fiction, screen and stage.
The society notes that it wants to highlight how diverse the community is, so artists on the LGBTQ spectrum, non-binary artists, artists of colour, Indigenous artists and artists with disabilities are encouraged to submit. Honorariums will be provided to presenters.
Preference will be given to workshops that haven’t been presented in New West over the past 12 months.
The deadline to submit proposals is Jan. 31, 2019. For full details on how to submit, see www.litfestnewwest.com.
