Editing & revising short stories with Thomas Morris

Fiction

Workshop

Do you feel like there's a gap between what you're capable of achieving as a writer and what you're actually achieving on the page?

Suitable for short story writers of all levels, this workshop with award-winning author Thomas Morris, former editor of The Stinging Fly, will encourage you to listen to your own writing and explore the potential for self-editing and revision.

During the workshop, Thomas will share early drafts of his own short stories, inviting you to reframe your writing – and take your stories to the next level.


Thomas Morris is a writer and editor from Caerphilly, South Wales. His debut story collection, We Don’t Know What We’re Doing (Faber & Faber) won the Wales Book of the Year, the Rhys Davies Trust Fiction Prize, and a Somerset Maugham Award. In 2023, Thomas was named one of Granta’s Best Young British Novelists and published his second book of stories, Open Up. He lives in Dublin, where he was formerly editor of The Stinging Fly.
