Every couple of months (usually) at 3pm, I host an hour-long kōrero pukapuka via Zoom. It’s a publishing support group for writers, especially writers making their first foray in to the world of publishing, including self-publishing. All are welcome - bring as many questions as you like!

Entry is by koha. My aim with all my workshops is to make them as accessible as possible while still earning myself a decent living. I've therefore created two pricing levels: waged ($25), and unwaged ($2.50). The overall kaupapa is to chip in what you can.

If you are technically waged but struggling financially - especially if you've been hit in the wallet by the pandemic - please just pay as much as you can afford. Conversely, if you’re technically unwaged (eg. retired) but are financially comfortable, I’d be really grateful if you would contribute a bit more.

To join, email me on books@elizabethheritage.co.nz and ask to be added to my mailing list. There’s no need to buy a ticket, just show up on the day.
