This course is suitable for people who are curious about writing or who are looking for a pathway into writing. It will offer simple and accessible tools to begin, and then to nurture a writing practice. The facilitator will focus on discovering together, and engaging with each individual’s unique writing voice. A mutually supportive and playful atmosphere will help participants feel secure in taking their first steps into writing.
A variety of writing forms will be explored. Participants will come away from this course encouraged, inspired and energised for the great adventure of finding out what poems, stories and memories are waiting to be uncovered.
