To lighten the dark days of February we are offering a lighthearted day of creative exploration. In this workshop you’ll learn a set of improvisation techniques and experiment with using them in creative writing.
When you apply improv to writing, interesting things happen. Your writing frees up and your voice emerges. Working on and off the page, award-winning writer Mandy Wheeler will introduce you to playful, practical exercises that will kick-start creativity and bring a freshness to your work.
If you’ve always wanted to write but struggle to get started, this workshop will give you the spark you need. Or if you just fancy taking some time out to explore your imagination, this day will help you develop spontaneity and build confidence.
This one-day workshop could be the perfect taster for our three-day writing retreat in Wiltshire in April.
Practical details
This is a full day course, running from 10am to 3.30pm at The Bell in Ticehurst.
Lunch, refreshments and materials are included.
What to expect
Fun and supportive creative exercises.
Practical tools to free up your writing.
