Writing workshops
CHANGING LIVES ONLINE WORKSHOP This is a poetry workshop that will look at three ages of a woman's life: Girlhood; Childbearing; (including those who are childless) and 'Cronehood'. We'll look at how we see ourselves and how the world sees us. What are the expectations on us at different times of our life and what happens if we don't fulfill those expectations.
We will use discussion , published poems, prose and images to inform new work with plenty of time away from the screen to write and time to share work.
This is a longer workshop lasting 5 hours with an hour for lunch.
10-30 - 3-30 (lunch at 12-30)

KILLING THE ANGEL IN THE HOUSE**
This workshop will be on how we often feel we have to fulfil our roles set out by society before we can write/read/do art.
Audre Lorde said 'Poetry is not a Luxury ' , but how often do we feel it is? Does guilt play a part in this?
We'll use poems and discussion to inform new work and there'll be chance to share. There are 10 places in each workshop.
These workshops are PAYF (pay as you feel) with a £5 minimum. If you need a free place please ask me.
