Pustaka Negeri Sarawak will host a poetry writing workshop entitled Lets
Write a Poem by Jais Sahok on 24 & 25 February 2015, 8.00 am till 5.00 pm at Pustaka
Gallery. It is a collaboration program between Pustaka Negeri Sarawak and Sarawak local authors and publishers under the Legal
Deposit Program.

A Short Story Writing Workshop and Book Review conducted by Jais Sahok were organized
last month and the program received an overwhelming response from the public. This
time around a poetry writing workshop will be organized.



Through this workshop, participants will have the opportunity to create various
themes of poetry by process and using the mind maps and i-think method in
creating poetry. Besides that, participants will read and write poems together in a fun and
supportive atmosphere and replace fear of poetry with inspiration and enthusiasm. Participants will also be taught to create and edit poems using the story board method, thus be able to write, recite and publish their own
poems.



This workshop is open for public participation and the entrance is free. If you
are interested to join this workshop, kindly contact Jassalini Jamain or
