Two days of work on collecting stories that like to escape along with their characters, featuring instructions regarding looking for topics, listening to people, asking questions and not disturbing them in telling their stories. At an accelerated pace, we will move from selecting the protagonist to the final version of the story. Workshops for those who think that not every question should be asked, and for those who think otherwise.
The workshops will take place at the Bishop Erazm Ciołek Palace, Kanonicza 17, Krakow
