Creative writing program a hit in Gladstone 

Published on 06 December, 2004 

Gladstone’s budding writers have been meeting each Thursday morning at CQU Gladstone for a creative writing course, organised by CQU Foundation’s Fay Owens.

PhotoID:1913 Local resident, Noel Wooton, a retired journalist and businessman, facilitated the course which aimed to help people discover their creative writing skills.

About 12 people, mostly seniors, enrolled in the three-week program and Fay said it has been a huge hit.

“Noel is amazing everyone with his knowledge and enthusiasm, he is so motivational,” said Mrs Owens.

The short program has been such a hit that the Foundation office is now hoping Noel will run a similar program at CQU Rockhampton next year.
