Creative Writing Session

Claudia Rapport

Sat 15
2.30pm – 4.30pm

Why do we write, what do we write, how we write, and where do our ideas come from? Some of the questions we will attempt to answer in this informal two hour session. We will consider free writing as a way to unlock our thoughts, journal keeping as a probable source of originality, ideas and experimentation, and look at clustering, a useful technique that can help us organise our thoughts.

The group will discuss the elements of the short story such as character, conflict and plot, and all participants are invited to bring work they are happy to share. Beginners and more advanced writers are welcome.
