Idiom 23 Magazine has again sponsored a very successful 3-day workshop at North Keppel Island Environmental Education Centre (on May 15-17).

Well known author and editor Robyn Sheahan-Bright was Writer In Residence, with additional workshops on microfiction and songwriting conducted by Steve Butler. Coordinator Dr Lynda Hawryluk also provided workshops on fiction and life-writing.

Idiom 23 has conducted many workshops on both NKI and Pumpkin Island - and at Byfield National Park - over the last decade. These have proven popular with authors from the city and the bush.

Dr Hawryluk has been very happy with the strong support for the workshop which again was a full house.

"Many of the participants have joined us for previous workshops, and the diversity of writers was very pleasing. The feedback has been very positive, and the weather could not have been better. Many thanks to the NKIEEC staff for a fantastic weekend."
