07.12.2023
On December 5, 2023, at the Spanish Embassy in Oslo took place the last of a series of meetings in the framework of the first edition of the "An Opportunity for Literature" project organized by the Association of National Cultural Institutes of the European Union EUNIC Norway. The project were concluded with the workshop "Curioser and curioser: How to avoid burn out by working on a variety of literary genres" conducted by WERONIKA MUREK, a Polish writer, author of short stories and theater plays, whose debut book, a collection of stories "Growing southern plants using the Michurina method" will be released in early 2024 on the Norwegian market by Meteor Forlag.
W. Murek, talking about her writing experiences and the satisfaction that comes from working with many literary genres and her openness to creating literature combining different genres, pointed to this as a good method to avoid burnout in creative work.
Participants of the workshop were keenly interested in the writer's literary achievements, her unique working method, and how her law studies had an impact on the literature she is creating. Much attention was also paid to the issue of professional burnout.
