Announcement: 1st Sharpened Word Literary Matinee
The inaugural Sharpened Word will be held on October 17, 2015 (Saturday).
If you haven’t heard of Sharpened Word before, it is because it’s newly established in Ipoh. Its objective is to celebrate the literary arts through a community event where writers can connect with their audience and where aspiring writers can learn from the experiences of other wordsmiths.
Every month, writers in various media read from their work and participate in a Q & A session on the writing process for an audience of readers, aspiring writers and other interested individuals.
Sharpened Word Literary Matinee will feature three writers, be they poets, novelists, song writers, graphic novelists, short story writers, playwrights, film writers and even bloggers, especially from northern Peninsular Malaysia.
The first of the monthly meet, as mentioned, will be on October 17, 2015. Subsequently, Sharpened Word meet-ups will be on the third Saturday of every month, at the permanent venue of Sepaloh Arts Centre, from 2pm to 5pm.
