7th Annual Writing Workshop in Zurich

Back in 2008-9, Writer Abroad lamented the lack of writing events in Zurich. So in 2010, she joined up with two other Zurich-based American writers, bravely invited a couple of famous authors to teach in Zurich over a weekend, crossed their fingers that other aspiring writers would attend the weekend, and then they held the first Zurich Writers Workshop. It felt great: Instead of lamenting the lack of something, they were creating something. 

Now, eight years later, thanks to a Canadian and Swiss writer, who have also joined the planning committee, the Zurich Writers Workshop is still going strong.

In fact, it's time for workshop number 7. Yes, the 7th Zurich Writers Workshop will take place May 12-14, 2017 in Zurich, Switzerland this spring. And you're invited.

This year's workshop is divided into two sections: 

The featured authors' latest books.

Fiction Boot Camp with Susan Jane Gilman and 

Poetry and Prose with Jill Alexander Essbaum. 

Each section also includes the Sunday Panel: Career Paths in Writing. There is also the opportunity to register for the Sunday Panel only. 

The entire workshop is conducted in English. To register, click here.
