Local Word Writers Festival is an annual two-day event of local writers presenting workshops, presentations and author in-conversations for writers and readers.
This short workshop is aimed at debut novelists and self-published writers who aspire to mainstream publication, looking at aspects such as show-don’t-tell, clunky prose and how to fix it, what is genre?, how plot works, developing your lead character, point of view, and structure & form. It will also examine the writer’s life – an honest breakdown of the hours spent creating long fiction.
Liz Monument is a novelist, fiction editor and writing coach based in Geelong. She works hand-in-hand with selected international fiction agencies to accelerate the submission process for writers of talent.
*Up to 20 participants | *Suitable for complete beginners to experienced writers aged 16+

The Queenscliff Library is housed in a beautiful heritage building, built in 1887, and services the Queenscliff and Point Lonsdale communities, as well as holidaymakers. Located in the main street of this picturesque coastal village, the branch is a small but much-loved community space. Located next to the Visitor Information Centre and Queenscliffe Historical Museum, the library features public access PCs, free WiFi, study spaces and a large reading room. Regular Preschool Story Time sessions are held here.
The Geelong Regional Library Corporation acknowledges the Wadawurrung People of the Kulin nation, and the Gulidjan and Gadubanud Peoples of the Maar nations as the Original Owners of the lands on which our library services operate. We pay respect to Elders past, present and emerging. We acknowledge and celebrate First Nations Peoples of this land as the custodians of learning, literacy, knowledge and story.
