THE
WORKSHOP
~
Our writing workshop is open to all writers ~
Welcome
to our literary 'gymnasium' where we regularly work
out with simple, yet rigorous, writing exercises and
competitions. It is not only fun, it also helps keep
creative minds fit and it could even be the springboard
to your future publishing success!
If
you are reading this, then it's pretty much guaranteed
that it's because you have an interest in writing and
that you aren't prepared to give up dreams of being
published. There will be a few who simply visit here
in a bid to keep tabs on us but, hey! Any
publicity is good publicity! Isn't that how the
saying goes?
Workshop
exercises are also displayed on these
pages, along with brief descriptions of the type
of work required. A selection of successful submissions
may be included in the next available edition of an
NYK publication. In addition to these types of exercise,
we suggest that writers create their own characters
and ideas for future development and recommend that
you set up your own chain of articles on our various
messageboards where you can have your virtual 'column'
incorporated into our polling system. Sign up to our
FREE newsletters to
find out more. You can also download a FREE sample copy
of Now You Know HERE.

The
above graphics are examples of subject material. Why
not write a few simple words about one of our above
characters, and post your work to the relevant messageboard.
It is your ability to impress readers that will determine
your success as a writer, so we recommend plenty of
practice. Our suggested writing themes are listed at
the side of this page.
Ask
yourself these few simple questions and then consider
your own answers -
1)
When was the last time you bought a book?
2)
How, where and, MOST IMPORTANTLY, why did you
buy it?
