Even though the news can often be depressing, it can also be a wonderful source of uplifting inspiration.  

Join award-winning flash fiction writer and The Phare joint Fiction Editor, Rebecca Klassen, in the News Flash Workshop series. We’ll be using news articles as creative springboards for flash, micro and short stories. There’ll be time to write, share and discuss your news-inspired work.

This is an online event. A link will be emailed to you a few days before the event date. 

Book four workshops and get one free in 2027.

We provide one free space for low-income writers. Please email itsthephare@gmail.com to book your place. The place will be awarded to the first email received.
