Writing Workshop:

(Writers' Workshop: Useful Strategies and Tips)

In the Deanship of Preparatory Programs

 

Under the patronage of HE the Dean of Preparatory Programs, Dr. Ali Al-Salem, and HE the Undersecretary of the Female Section, Dr. Hanan Habs Al-Harbi, the organizing committee of the competition will present the Writers' Workshop: Useful Strategies and Tips, on Monday, 24/7/1442 AH, targeting the students of the Deanship, and the participants and participants in the short story competition recently launched by the Deanship.

This workshop is one of the events accompanying the Short Story Contest for writing short stories in English. This unique writing workshop focuses on clarifying the most important strategies for writing a short story, such as descriptive style, character building, narrative and coherence of events, plot, and influencing the reader, in addition to the necessary steps in improving the writing and creativity of short stories.

This workshop will be presented by a group of professors of the Department of English at the Deanship of Preparatory Programs, namely Amna Al-Ghamdi, a specialist in English literature and a doctoral student in it, Wa. Maha Al-Shammari, specialized in English language curricula and teaching methods, Wa. Nouf Al-Swailem, specialized in teaching English as a second language.

Short story writing literature is one of the most important cultural and linguistic products produced by speakers of living languages, and evidence has come together for great writers who amazed us by writing the short story in English, although it, that is, English, is not their mother tongue, including the Nigerien storyteller Chinua Achebe, the Polish writer Joseph Conrad and the Chinese inspirational Yiyun Li.

The next day, the Short Story Contest was launched at the Deanship of Preparatory Programs, where the competition focuses on promoting three basic aspects among the students of the Deanship: creativity and originality, linguistic queen, and healthy competition among peers, while the conditions for participation in it are:

• Participants must be current students in the Deanship of Preparatory Programs.
• The story must be in English, written by computer.
• The story should be inspired by one of the four writing motivators selected by the organizing committee, whose images and phrases are attached to the advertisement.
• Share only one story per student.

 

Registration for the short story writing competition in English was also available on the Deanship's Twitter account (@DPP_ImamU) Wednesday, 19/7/1442 AH and ends on Thursday 11/8/1442 AH, where the jury will announce the names of the winners of the first places on Sunday, 15/7/1442 AH, God willing.

The organizing committee and jury based each story on one of four writing stimuli to swim our students in the space of fiction and narrative worlds.

As for the reason for choosing four incentives for writing, Ms. Iman Al-Otaibi, from the competition organizations and judges, explained that: "The choice of writing incentives as one of the conditions for participation in the competition comes because we know as English teachers of their importance in unleashing the student's imagination, as they represent the first threshold to the desired story."

It is worth mentioning that what is meant by writing stimuli are phrases and images chosen by professors to write their articles and stories against them, they are like the main title or general format.

 

The jury also relies on 60% of the evaluation of the winning stories and 40% of the vote of the readers of the story, as the jury will put the three stories nominated for the finals to the vote of the readers on the Deanship's Twitter account.

The criteria for the jury in the distribution of points to the competitors are that the story should be:

• Authentic
• Creative
• With a plot and narrative
• Descriptive
• Linguistically sound
• The competition is fun

As a result of the creative written talents of English language professors in English for the students of the preparatory programs, and a desire to appreciate them at the level of the Deanship as one of the forms of academic, scientific and literary support from the portal of our male and female students to university life.         

The organizing committee and the jury are composed of a: Abeer Al-Osaimi, a: Iman Al-Otaibi, a: Amna Al-Ghamdi, a: Maha Al-Shammari, a: Nouf bin Muhanna, a: Nouf Al-Swailem, a. A: May al-Askar, A: Wassan al-Haidari, A: Arak al-Shushan.
