About this Event
Warm up your quill at the Inkpot Collective’s writers’ workshops!
Each month, we explore a different theme with collaborative brainstorming, quiet writing time, and the opportunity to share your work for feedback (or just for fun!)
In April, we will look at ways to get unstuck when hit by writer's block. Join us on Thursday, 9th April at 5:30-7:30 PM at Accidental Theatre (Book Bar) in Belfast.
For more information, DM on Instagram at @inkpotcollective
Don't forget to bring a notepad, laptop, or whatever you need to write!
