Applications have now closed for our week-long summer fiction workshops.
Led by Sean O’Reilly, the workshops will take place in Dublin and Galway. These are intensive daytime workshops during which each writer’s work comes up for in-depth discussion twice. Also included are three sessions on aspects of narrative prose by guest speakers, including the editors of The Stinging Fly.
No more than ten places will be offered on each course. Places are offered based on work submitted.
Applications should be made to our Submittable page by the relevant closing date. If you can attend the workshop at either location please apply to the Galway workshop only.
