Kiaaaa ooooora Te Waipounamu, we're heading your way!

In partnership with Ōtepoti Writers Lab and thanks to support from Dunedin City Council, we're excited to be heading to Ōtepoti Ofor a publishing workshop in September, with publishing opportunities to follow. The purpose of this project is to build skills and connections with writers in the area no matter what stage in your journey. Haere mai tātou!

WORKSHOP: Demystifying Publishing with Sherry Zhang

Cost:
Free to attend (RSVP Required)

Date:
Sunday 17th September 2023, 1 – 2:30pm

Location: Ōtepoti Writers Lab HQ, Carnegie Centre, 110 Moray Place, Dunedin*

This relaxed workshop will cover all parts of the publishing process, with the aim to make it easier to get your writing out into the world! We’ll take you through pitching to online publications, as the first step of creating your piece. After this step, we will delve into the nitty gritty steps of publishing, including developing and refining your argument and angle and the different stages of editing.

The focus of this workshop will be arts publishing (e.g. personal essays, features, and interviews) as opposed to other forms of publishing.

NB: WE'VE HAD SO MUCH INTEREST, REGISTRATIONS HAVE NOW CLOSED THROUGH OFFICIAL CHANNELS! Email in submissions@pantograph-punch if you wanna get popped on the waiting list and stay in touch about publishing opportunities!

CAN'T MAKE IT, BUT...?

Are you still interested in publishing your writing on our platform? As a part of this project we will be finding a few writers in Ōtepoti to work with on pieces covering local arts and culture. If you can’t make it along but you’re interested in writing for us send us an email at [email protected] with the title 'Ōtepoti Critical Coverage' some details about yourself and what you might like to write about.
