A new look at the world
How does a writer look at the world? How do they take their unique view and fashion it into compelling poetry and prose? This supportive, fun and practical course uses group exercises and individual projects to help you discover new ways of paying attention to your senses, finding and expressing ideas, collecting material and, crucially, taking note of what's all around.
This course is fully booked. Please call the centre if you would like to be put on the waiting list or to discuss other courses.
