Becoming a Writer Weekly Creative Writing Workshops (drop-in)
17 GBP
Wednesday evenings 7-9pm, Turners Hill (9 weeks: 17 Jan - 21 Mar, break 14 Feb)
A weekly creative writing drop-in workshop to nurture and encourage your words, whether you’ve been writing for a while or are dipping your pen in ink for the first time in years. I will bring exercises and prompts to write together and share (if you want to). There will be time each week for gentle feedback on writing prepared at home. We will also explore writing techniques to develop your ability to express yourself on the page.
These workshops are for you if you:
– have always wanted to write but don’t know where to start
– have been scribbling in a ...notebook and wonder if these ideas could turn into something else
– could do with some help bringing your writing alive.
I will share techniques, tools and tips to help:
– your writing flow
– bring your writing alive
– create a writing habit
– you understand what works well in a piece of writing
– experiment with language
– you feel part of a writing community.
There will be plenty of:
– fun exercises, writing together and reading out (if you feel comfortable)
– suggestions of things to try inbetween the weekly sessions
– a toolkit of ideas, resources and exercises you can return to at home
– gentle guidance as you gain confidence in your writing
– tea and coffee to keep those words flowing.
What to bring:
Paper, pens and a willingness to try new things.
All workshops are £20 with discounts for block booking. Email click to contact to book.
Workshops are run by Mel Parks, experienced freelance writer, NAWE member, fully insured and DBS.
