“Last night was JOYOUS! Thank you! …A shot in the arm in an overly-earnest world (which, as we know, is STIFLING for creativity!) Your workshops are like rocket fuel.”
All my workshops always offer free, concessionary and pay-what-you-can places, you’re very welcome to have your camera off – and if you can’t join live on the night, all ticketholders receive a link to the recording shortly afterwards.

Next Workshop: Mon Feb 23rd 7-8pm UK ZOOM Unbox Your Words: 1-Hour Writing Muscle Workout
Do you know about your writing muscle? The more you write, the warmer it gets, and that means it can be stretched in all sorts of different directions! Join me for this quick-fire Zoom workshop where we will get your writing muscle limbered up with three different writing exercises in 60 minutes… The aim is, as always, to give you permission to play, and create brand new drafts in whatever shape you choose (fiction, poem, non-fiction, hybrid, other) or help you write something you’re working on or that you’ve wanted to write for a while but were having trouble coming at head-on. Concession, free and pay-what-you-can places availble. Details and booking here: https://www.tickettailor.com/events/taniahershman/2004234

Georgina N, participant in a Zoom flash fiction masterclass, Nov 2021: “Thank you Tania. It was like letting loose a swarm of humming bees to make honey. Clever facilitation.”
“Two hours of flash heaven this morning with Tania Hershman on her #flashfiction workshop. Excellent #writing exercises (I have 3 new micros at least!) & thoughtful, intelligent tips. ‘Liberation through constraint’ is my new mantra.” Tracy F, 2020
“Didn’t think I had it in me, but here I am at 8am EST, with four new flash story drafts written in the past two hours, thanks to Tania Hershman & her fab writing exercises… Thank you, Tania I’ve been writing, but not freely. This forced me to let go, something I have a very hard time doing with my writing. So grateful to Tania.” Janice L, 2020
“Brilliant flash fiction workshop with @taniahershman this morning. Came away with 4 drafts and now I need a nap! Also lovely to hear Tania echo my own sentiments of the line between poetry and flash being so thin” Sarah S, 2020
“I haven’t written anything new in months and this was exactly the kickstart I needed!!!” Marina S, 2020
