is anyone planning on going to this?

OR has anyone been before and knows whether it is worthwhile to go?

cause it LOOKS pretty useful, how they have broken the workshops down into the specific mediums...

Look behind you
You're the first to mention it too me but out of the days I've been to so far I have not learnt one thing that I didn't already know

I don't think I'll bother unless my school pays for it. Otherwise its a total waste of time and money.

It looks good, but ETA brings back memories of the shonky Extension English 2 thing I went to last year. I'll think about it though, since it's covering the specific areas, though these things only make me more depressed about my work for some reason :p

Yeah $38 is a bit much... I heard about another one for workshops at the NSW writers centre... for short story major works and for fantasy fiction. They're $40 each

this is a first for me,
and the first i've heard of this.

i don't think i'll be going,
since i already know what i'm going to do, etc.

plus, $40 is a little steep i might add,
(there's a $50 king lear workshop that im considering... but i might back out since it's happening on a saturday)

oh to be a city kid, and just pop around the corner to watch an HSC text... the only chance we have to see 'Ros & Guil' would be in a place 4 hours away, in the middle of our trials... :p ... oh, woe is me!

I don't do any homework on Fridays either. It's the relaxation time.. you know nothing is due on Saturday, so it can wait!

You're a negative one aren't you?


I don't think Id go to a lecture for Ext 2 though, they can't tell me anything my English teacher can't.
