After running Women’s Writing Workshops in Cape Town for 12 years, Anne Schuster moved to Kleinmond at the end of 2010. Anne now spends more time on her own writing and offers a limited workshop programme which includes writing retreats and online courses.
In writing with others, without pretension, without competition and without trying to impress, there is an extraordinary connection of creative energies. ~ Anne Schuster
