Welcome! It would seem that in this endless sea of internet your browsing dingy has managed to find the tiny island that is the website of Damian Robb. Congratulations!
So, who is Damian Robb?
I am a writer who works freelance within the publishing,
television, podcasting, and education industries. My
prose can be found in some beautiful books as well as a
number of anthologies and magazines, and has been
shortlisted for the Lord Mayor's Creative Writing award. I also
work in development and scripting for the screen, where my work
has been shortlisted for the John Hinde screenwriting award, and
the Blue Sky Drama Initiative. I also host and produce the popular podcasts Scaredy Boys and Stray Thoughts and have taught story and writing at RMIT, Swinburne, and Story Studios Australia.

The Complete Short Story Workshop
Learn the art of storytelling—from first idea to finished story
The Complete Short Story Workshop is a 6-week, in-person course designed to help you write the best short story you’ve ever written.
​
This course is packed full of practical advice, hands-on exercises, and real-time feedback. Whether you’re just starting out or looking to level up your writing, you’ll be guided through the entire process of short story creation—from generating strong ideas, to building compelling characters, structuring your narrative, writing and refining your draft, and finally, preparing your story for publication.
​
And your story will be published! Every student’s work will be featured in a professionally printed anthology, launched later in the year.
​
What you'll get:
-
6 weeks of expert instruction and guided writing
-
Practical tools and techniques to take your writing to the next level
-
Supportive feedback and encouragement in a small group setting
-
A published story in a beautifully produced anthology
-
A book launch event to celebrate your work
​
This course is open to everyone—first-timers, hobbyists, and experienced writers alike. If you want to write a short story (and make it great), this is the course for you.
