Creative WORDshop

This wordshop is an adventure into yourself and the world around you, and finding new and magical ways to express it on the page.

The classes are very small and the course material is geared to help you see your world - and your life - as an extraordinary place - to see it more creatively, with fresh eyes - and then to transfer this new information into the written word.

It will include playing with, amongst others:

* poetry,
* writing for self and writing for a reader,
* observation skills (all writers should know how to engage with people/environment so as to be able to write about different characters),
* using the senses to engage with the page,
* memoir/self writing.

It will also include exercises in the class that will, amongst others, unlock hidden aspects within ourselves and allow us to access that creatively by writing. It will also include “seeing and writing” outside the class environment in which you will engage with your environment and people with “new” eyes.

These are just some of the things that will be included on the course. They are great fun, and a way of setting time aside to dream and to write and explore and express.
