Toolkits: Fiction 2025
Ends on
Learn about story structure, character, setting and everything in between.
Express Media is proud to present the 2025 return of Toolkits: Fiction - an online course in the forms, skills, and ethics of writing fiction. This program will combine theoretical approaches, practical exercises and group workshopping to guide young writers to explore storytelling and ethics, learn how to craft characters, plots and plans and how to polish work for publication.
Toolkits is first and foremost a practical initiative. Young writers will be encouraged to write, workshop and edit their writing throughout the course. They will hone their skills in textual analysis, create their own original work, explore the possibilities of collaborative work, and learn how to pitch work to publishers when they’re done.
If you are a young writer or artist interested in writing fiction, we want to hear from you!
Toolkits: Fiction will take place on Wednesday evenings 6-8pm between April 23 and July 9. The total expected time commitment of this program is 20 hours.
