OCTOBER 24TH
Want to have your readers rolling around the floor laughing? Then don't miss the workshop on writing humour by Michael Gerard Bauer on October 24th.
Kids love funny stories. When we do school festivals they sell well. In this workshop, we look at the basic question, 'What makes something funny?' Once we've identified the key ingredient of humour, we will apply what we have learned to important aspects of storytelling, such as plot, character and language use, in order to produce laugh out loud results.
Tutor: Michael Gerard Bauer. Michael is a multi-award-winning, Brisbane based writer of YA and Children's Books. Michael's most recent publications have been the very popular Eric Vale series and its spin-off series, Secret Agent Derek 'Danger' Dale. These hilarious books for younger readers are fully illustrated by Michael's son Joe Bauer. Michael's books are used widely in schools and are currently translated into 12 languages and sold in over 40 countries.
Cost: 1 day $80
