The Microfiction Workshop was addressed to adults who wanted to discover the compact narrative world of literature and it was attended by more than 200 friends from all parts of Greece and abroad. The participants, guided by writer Giannis Farsaris, had the opportunity to get to know the exciting world of micro-fiction through 4 online meetings on March 4 and 18, and April 1 and 8, 2023.

  • Publication of a digital book containing selected microfiction stories written by the participants, which is freely available online.
