Tickets
As part of the 2023 MK Lit Fest Springs Back! Festival, Cheryl Markosky and Tony Horitz, winners of the 2022 Write About Walking competition and our 2022/3 writers-in-residence, invite you to a free online creative writing workshop to inspire you to submit written pieces in the Write About Walking A/way competition. The competition will be launched at the workshop.
Cheryl and Tony were tasked with coming up with the theme for the competition and chose “Walking A/way: Walking Away or Walking A Way” – they will also make this theme central to this hour long creative writing workshop.
Walking A/way
You can choose how you wish to interpret the theme in poetry or short prose. Your work can be fiction, creative non-fiction or memoir.
You may interpret walking a/way however you wish, such as escaping from … or being drawn towards …. Or even walking in a certain way – confident or subdued…. Or walking a particular route.
We at walk · listen · create run an annual Write About Walking competition in which shortlisted pieces are published in a limited edition illustrated chapbook published by Sampson Low, and winners and runners-up win other prizes too – find out more about the 2023 competition here.
Purchase copies of chapbook anthologies from previous competitions from our shop here.
