Creative writing workshop with Sarah Luke - Fri 19 July
Sarah's new NLA Publishing title, Marion and the Forty Thieves takes you aboard the Sobraon, a magnificent floating boys' school that once existed in Sydney. Follow along to learn how to create the hook to your story and write a climactic scene for your character using historical images.
This workshop was targeted at children aged 10 to 12 years of age, and all writing material was supplied.
This activity was also held on Thursday 18 July 2024, 1pm to 2:30pm.
About Sarah Luke
Sarah Luke is a teacher and historian. She likes researching in archives, finding information about people from the past and writing non-fiction books about them. At other times she is inspired to write historical fiction stories, so that people who merely ghost through archives also have a chance to be remembered. Sarah likes exploring old places in Sydney - particularly sandstone palaces and mossy, dark graveyards. Marion and the Forty Thieves is her first children's book.
