About this plan

If you like writing and want to try short texts, this free plan in Bogotá is for you. The Manuel Zapata Olivella Public Library, in El Tintal, is opening a creative writing workshop focused on flash fiction, a form where every word matters. In this first session, the focus is on characters: how to craft memorable protagonists and antagonists in just a couple of sentences. It's an invitation to treat brevity as an ally for suggesting large worlds with little text.

The workshop is open entry, so you just need to show up ready to write and let the exercises guide you. It's a solid plan for beginning writers, curious readers, and fans of short stories who want to move from idea to page. If you're looking for what to do in Bogotá on a cultural, offbeat afternoon, put it on your calendar.
