Thursday: Writers & Illustrators of the Future Workshop

On Thursday, 27 August, the workshop for the illustrators continued with Illustrators of the Future judges instructing the contest winners in various aspects of their trade while also covering the business side of being an illustrator.

The writers completed their 24-hour short story and returned at 5:00 pm each with a completed story in their hands. This was just enough time to get ready for the barbeque that was about to start.

Enjoy the photos!
