We’re thrilled to bring you a series of insightful and inspiring workshops from some of our talented speakers at the SAW Conference 2025. In this virtual experience, we present five fantastic sessions that will deepen your understanding of key writing topics:

• Paul Smith explores the art of ghostwriting, sharing his experiences and tips for writing behind the scenes.

• VEH Masters provides an invaluable guide to self-publishing, offering practical lessons for those looking to publish their own work.

• Catherine Ogston takes us into the world of Hermit Crab Flash Fiction, showing how this unique style can unlock creative potential.

• Laura T. Fyfe offers expert advice on how to increase your publishing success, helping writers navigate the often complex journey to publication.

• Susan McVey delves into the craft of writing dystopian worlds, guiding writers through the process of building immersive and thought-provoking futures.

These videos are designed to encourage and help any writer enhance their craft and further their writing journey.
