05Workshops & Visits

Teaching. Mentoring. Making space.

Pim leads writing workshops, creative-writing sessions and talks for schools, universities, literary festivals and cultural organisations in Thailand and internationally.

Her sessions are designed to make writing feel accessible, playful and purposeful, whether participants are aspiring writers or simply looking for a space to experiment, think creatively and express themselves. She also speaks about publishing, the writing life, Asian representation and her experience as a writer of colour. She is now building Our Writing Room, a mentorship and workshop program which provides a little space for Thai youth to find their voice through writing and the arts.

She is available for one-off workshops and school visits, multi-session programmes, longer-term residencies, mentorship programmes, talks and Q&As.

  • An open, friendly atmosphere — where everyone feels welcome and supported.
