This playful two-hour workshop is a chance to follow your curiosity and get back in touch with your creative spark. Through light-touch writing prompts and short guided exercises, we’ll explore what happens when you pay closer attention to what’s around you and what that stirs up on the page.
You don’t need to call yourself a writer. You don’t need a big idea. Just bring a notebook, a pen and a willingness to see where it takes you.
There’s no pressure to produce or share anything. This is about experimenting, noticing and letting yourself enjoy the process.
Whether you're feeling stuck, uninspired or in need of a creative reset, you’re very welcome.
