Starting in September, Galway Arts Centre presents a daytime class for all those beginner and
continuing creative writing students out there, facilitated by Susan Millar DuMars. Susan
Millar DuMars writes both poetry and fiction. A collection of her stories, Lights In The Distance, was
published in December 2010 by Doire Press; she has published three collections
of poetry, Big Pink Umbrella (2008), Dreams For Breakfast (2010) & The God Thing (2013) all with Salmon
Poetry. She is also co-organiser of the Over The Edge reading series which
specifically promotes new writers.
The class is suitable for both beginning and continuing
creative writing students, working in either poetry or fiction. Students will
spend their weeks responding to writing exercises designed to inspire, rather
than inhibit. In class, they will receive gentle feedback on their work from
their classmates and from the teacher. The class takes place on Monday afternoons, 2-3.30pm,
commencing on Monday, September 23rd.
The class runs for ten weeks.
The cost to participants is 110 Euro with a 100 Euro concession price.
Booking is essential as places are limited. For booking please contact Galway Arts Centre, 47 Dominick Street,
