Imaginary Worlds

Workshop with Danika Dinsmore

Cover to Cover Books

Cost: $25 ($20 students)

Imaginary Worlds with Danika Dinsmore: As we grow older, we tend to spend less time looking at our world via our imaginations. In this workshop we will explore the imaginary worlds of our daily lives, discovering new and magical experiences in the “ordinary” occurrences around us. Be inspired by an afternoon of creative writing exercises and lively discussion and leave with a bag of tricks to return to whenever you want to re-enter those worlds.

Everyone who attends Danika's workshop will receive a copy of her first book, Traffic.
