From 12 – 24 January 2010, British Council, MPH and London based Spread the Word are partnering to organise City of Stories, a series of creative writing workshops for aspiring and developing local writers.

The first series of City of Stories workshops took place in February and was very well received by all who participated. It has been brought back by popular demand and this round aims to encourage participants to derive inspiration from their surroundings for the production of written work. The writers’ skills will be developed through innovative activities that creatively and sensitively engage the writers with their cities and with the people who inhabit these spaces.

Sarah Butler and Ardashir Vakil are the workshop facilitators and between them will run 2 full day beginners workshops and a 2 week long workshop for advanced writers at MPH Megastore 1 Utama.

Sarah Butler is a writer and freelance project manager with a particular interest in the relationship between writing and place. In 2006 she set up her consultancy, UrbanWords, to explore the area of creative writing and regeneration. Sarah’s background is in community and participatory literature development and has an MA in creative writing from University of East Anglia. She is currently writer-in-residence for a project called Almost an Island? based on the Greenwich Peninsula.

Ardashir Vakil is an author whose first novel, Beach Boy, won a Betty Trask Award in 1997 and was shortlisted for the Whitbread First Novel Award 1997. His second novel, One Day was shortlisted for the Encore Award. Born in Bombay and educated at The Doon School, he now lives in London with his wife and two daughters. He teaches Creative Writing at Goldsmiths, University of London and the University of East Anglia.

The creative writing workshops are divided into two categories: Beginner Writers and Advanced Writers.
