WEEKLY ONLINE WORKSHOP
A WRITING LIFE
Start your Friday morning creatively – join us for an energising workshop filled with imaginative writing prompts and based on a new theme each week.
What to expect
WORKSHOP OVERVIEW
As writers, we know that holding space for creativity in our busy lives is a gift to ourselves. We’ve learnt that coming together each week is a source of joy and inspiration.
Every Friday morning we set aside an hour to write together – drawing inspiration from art and nature, and exploring new tactics and techniques.
Dip into a session that interests you, sign up for a monthly subscription, or give someone the gift of time in which to dream, think and write.
Pricing: £15 per session, or £45 per month for unlimited sessions.
“Brilliant. It unlocked a long held wish to write – it gave me directions and ideas, and the energy of the group was inspiring.”
Sue (February 2024)

shadows
The dark mornings at the end of the year are full of shadows. Lean with us into the uncanny sense that comes from what we barely see – what we never quite touch. Maybe it’s the half-remembered past, the beckoning fingers of the future… or simply what’s down your garden path.
HOME
“People are made of places,” writes the Canadian poet Elizabeth Brewster. We’ll be thinking about what makes a home, and how places shape us.
WANDERING
In the words of JR Tolkien, “not all those who wander are lost.” Today we will look at poetry and prose that wanders with purpose. Our own writing will meander and ramble; it will slip down side alleys and follow will-o’-the-wisps.
holiday
Join us for a very special session. We’ll read poems and passages that celebrate past Christmases, solstices, Hanukkahs and other holidays. We’ll reflect on the year and celebrate creative moments. We’ll write together.
beginnings
How do great stories start? As we gather together at the start of a new year, we’ll be looking at entrancing openings of all kinds. We’ll try our hand at writing some first paragraphs, and share our writing goals for 2025. Join us for an invigorating start to a year of creativity!
