The 3-days workshop which is organized by the Ghana Writers Association, Literary Ghana, and the Goethe-Institut Accra, the workshop brings together renowned authors and industry experts to facilitate sessions on creative writing, storytelling techniques, character development, and publishing.

The workshop started at the Goethe Institute in Accra for the first-day session and later moved to Koforidua for the second and third sessions.
