Join Carrie Snyder for a writing adventure, a workshop that invites you to write fiction using a variety of imaginative techniques, loosely based on the teachings of Lynda Barry, who asks us to consider “the perishable images about the day you didn’t notice you’d noticed at all.” All you need is a notebook and a black pen. Come prepared to write and sketch by hand. For writers aged 13 to 17.

Carrie lives in Waterloo, Ontario with her husband, four children, and two dogs, and blogs as Obscure CanLit Mama. She teaches creative writing at the University of Waterloo.
