Would you like to try your hand at writing? Are you a secret scribbler? Have you already developed a writing practice?
This two-day writing retreat is suitable for complete beginners or those already writing.
Poet and writing facilitator, Dr. Stephanie Conn, will gently guide you through a weekend of engaging writing exercises and activities to generate your own writing, in an encouraging and supportive environment. You’ll also look at a range of texts – poetry, fiction and non-fiction – to see how established writers express themselves, as a spring-board for your own ideas.
Bring along a notebook and pen, a packed lunch and a ‘have a go’ attitude.
