workshops

stretch those fingers out & swap touch screens for a typewriter strike.

• Are you ready to swap your smartphone for the rhythmic, mechanical soul of a vintage typewriter? WordMinx will soon be hosting a series of intimate, interactive workshops right here on the Sunshine Coast and further afield. These sessions are designed to help you slow down, breathe, and reconnect with the tactile joy of creating something permanent, beautiful, and uniquely yours. The experience In these workshops, you won’t just be observing. You'll be sitting down at a carriage from my personal fleet. Whether you find yourself paired with Brother Darryl, the yellow Big Bird, or the Royal De Luxe, you’ll learn the quirks and charms of these mid-century marvels.

• Under my guidance, you will:

• - Limber up: we’ll get those fingers loose and ready for the satisfying "thwack" of a manual key strike.
• - The linguistic reveal: you’ll choose a favourite word, a haunting song lyric, a beloved poem, or even a phrase of your own making.
• - Watercolour magic: we’ll blend the precision of type with the fluid beauty of watercolour, creating a layered piece of art that speaks to your soul.

• Why analog?
• In a world of "delete" and "autocorrect," there is something incredibly empowering about a machine that demands your full attention. Each letter is a commitment; each smudge is a story. These workshops aren't about perfection - they are about the human touch.

• I am currently putting the finishing touches on our workshop space and curated kits. If you’ve ever wanted to feel the weight of a mechanical carriage or see your favourite words bloom across a page of heavy-milled paper, this is for you.
