Create fantastic fiction & ravishing rhymes using the Girls’ Annuals in our collection.
Dear Agony Aunt – I’m looking for a creative writing workshop where I’ll get a warm welcome, encouraging feedback and fun writing exercises using all those 1970s and 80s magazines for teenage girls. Thanks! Hopeful of Glasgow.
Dear Hopeful – we have just the thing for you: two hours of creative writing inspired by the fashion and feathercuts, stories and soul-searching, and music and mayhem of magazines like Jackie, Blue Jeans, Boyfriend and Patches.
This workshop is for women only* and costs £2 full price. We offer free subsidised places for students, people on a low income, unemployed or those in receipt of benefit and Friends of GWL. Please book below or you can call us on 0141 550 2267. If you have booked a place and are no longer able to attend please let us know so that we can make your place available to someone else.
*All women-only events are inclusive of Trans and Intersex women, as well as non-binary and gender fluid people.
