Comments about improvement in
writing skills Future ideas
I found writing to be more fun and there are lots of different
types of writing. It doesn’t have to be a happy story. More authors and more time to enjoy the sessions we like.
Be more descriptive. Maybe we could choose the groups we go in.
I think the festival improved my writing by showing me different
perspectives of writing so I can have different ideas when writing
in the future. I think my piece of writing at the end was amazing! It inspired
me to keep writing. Bring back the Aboriginal Storytelling session.
I have found some love of writing and been inspired to think
outside the box. I will be more creative.
I really enjoyed the festival and it gave me ideas and tips.
Think creative and write from the heart.
It inspired me to write more and add more description as well. I am inspired to write a lot more with all these ideas in my head.
It has made me feel more passionate about becoming an author. I had heaps of ideas and I was impressed with how much I wrote.
I always find it hard to finish my stories, however, this time using
some tricks I learnt, I found it easier.
I believe that I can write a good piece by myself.
I think the ideas from Raewyn are going to help me.
