U of T Summer Writing School
“The U of T writing school was a great way to plunge into tangential dialogue, surprising plot twists, and flesh out an eccentric cast of characters… and in addition to all that, I did some half-decent fiction writing while I was there.”
Vincent Lam, Author Bloodletting and Miraculous Cures: Stories, Giller Prize Award Winner, and Creative Writing Summer School Student
July 16 – 20, 2012
Join our five day intensive workshop for emerging writers. Steps from the subway, on U of T’s campus in downtown Toronto, we offer you a chance to learn the craft of writing from some of Canada’s finest authors:
Alissa York, Joy Fielding, John Bemrose, Howard Schrier, Ken Babstock, Ken McGoogan, Justin Rutledge, Norman Snider, Kathryn Kuitenbrouwer, Willow Dawson, Mariko Tamaki, Kelley Armstrong, Helen Humphreys, Marina Nemat, Dave Bidini, Ranjini George Philip.
The 2012 program features limited-enrolment, daily round-table workshops–this year the workshop hours have been extended! As well, there will be one panel discussion, instructor and student readings, and the opportunity to meet and discuss your work with other emerging writers.
Please submit a piece (or excerpt) you want to workshop (unless otherwise indicated)–maximum 20 double-spaced pages, by June 15: scs.writing@utoronto.ca
