Our popular Fearties Workshops are back for a fun and fear-free Bold Types special. Want to put pen to paper (or finger to keyboard) but intimidated by that blank page staring at you? This Fearties session is the ideal place to coax your muse out of hiding and encourage her to enter our Bold Types competition. This year, our theme is CELEBRATION, so discover your poetry powers and story strengths with some thought-provoking and celebratory writing exercises. Or bring a piece you’ve already written for the competition and get feedback and editing tips to polish your writing gem until it sparkles and give you the boost to be bold.
This is one of our “take part” events this Autumn! Grab a pen and paper (or your keyboard!) and get involved with the writing exercises. All sharing is voluntary!
