The Institute of Continuing Education (ICE) is home to the University of Cambridge Centre for Creative Writing, and this bitesize workshop is designed to quickly enhance your writing and open your mind to new possibilities in your reading and writing.

This workshop encourages you to delve deep into the words of writers. A short talk, given by Dr Jenny Bavidge, will provide a critical history of the short story and open up into a discussion of Katherine Mansfield’s seminal story ‘Bliss’ which celebrates its 100th year since publication. Copies of the stories to be discussed will be available to pick up and read before the session.

Other events on the day include, talks, workshops, and a panel discussion. Book two workshops and save £5 (you must be logged into your account for the discount to apply) making the full day a maximum of £30. If you are still eager for more and wish to indulge in a 3 course meal alongside hearing from Cynan Jones- winner of the Short Story Competition last year, why not add dinner for £35?

If your writing would benefit from some fine-tuning and professional feedback, why not sign up for a 1:1 supervision with one of our specialist tutors? Dr Sarah Burton, Professor Jem Poster and Dr Lucy Durneen will be available for consultation throughout the day. Book in advance by email to zara.kuckelhaus@ice.cam.ac.uk, specifying which tutor you would like to see, and when.
