We are honoured to announce that The Village will co-host this special boutique workshop with Kinjarling's very own writer Molly Schmidt, author of the award winning book Salt River Road.

Salt River Road, winner of the the 2022 City of Fremantle Hungerford Award, is a compelling coming-of-age novel about grief and healing set in a small town in the 1970s.

Molly will be sharing her non-linear writing process, blending story-telling and poetry to assist participants in writing their life-story. The workshop will explore the process of non-fiction life writing skills and craft engaging narratives about real people and events.

This beautiful offering is for those that are passionate about writing and creativity, however no writing experience is necessary.

Molly who is also a trained yoga instructor, will also guide workshop attendees through some gentle movement practices to break up the writing components. (What can't she do!)

What this workshop includes:

A bespoke writing workshop run by author Molly Schmidt
A gentle, accessible movement session run by Molly - to stretch our bodies and achy writing hands!
A beautiful decomposition journal
A wholesome plant-based lunch, snacks and warm and cool drinks throughout the workshop
Set at the incredible Princess Royal Sailing Club looking out over Mamang Koort / Princess Royal Harbour

There will also be a ticket option which includes a signed copy of Salt River Road.

This is a small group offering and places are limited.

We can't wait to write with you.
