Writing Home
Explore the meaning of home, migration, and belonging in a creative writing workshop with Sāmoan writer Todd Barrowclough.
What does ‘home’ mean to you? Have you migrated – by choice or otherwise – and what does it mean to live away from where you grew up? Have you felt the pull of adventure and opportunity to put down new roots; have you felt the need to grab your things and leave a place? Are you familiar with dislocation, isolation, and the shock of the new? Have you navigated a newfound Otherness, or have you been Othered in new ways?
