Anne Freeman - Writers Workshop

Stories with Spice: Bypass the cringe and bring the smoulder

"The best workshop I've been to in ages! Anne's expert tips can help you use spice to develop your characters' authenticity and motivation, while moving your story forward. Highly recommended!"

Join award-winning contemporary fiction writer Anne Freeman in a spirited exploration of what makes a successful spicy scene and how to craft one.

During this one hour, interactive workshop, participants will gain an increased understanding of their ideal reader and how to cater to their desires using the fundamentals of good writing. 

From her little teak desk on Wurundjeri land in Melbourne, Anne Freeman writes contemporary fiction about women who are stuck in life and the extraordinary ways they shake themselves loose. Her stories are always engaging and sometimes funny with reluctant adventures, sexy escapades and friendships that uplift.

Anne's second novel, Me That You See, was shortlisted in the 2022 Hawkeye Publishing Manuscript Development Prize and longlisted in the 2023 Grindstone Literary International Novel Prize. It is out now with Hawkeye Publishing.
