About this Event
Join me for a saturday morning walk and enjoy two hours guided creative writing time in nature.
We'll meet at the Ivy Green car park opposite The Bowling Green pub in Chorlton, and take a mindful walk through the woods and nature reserve, observing what birds and plants we see and what this brings up for us. We'll stop in various spots within the nature reserve to write surrounded by nature.
If it's too wet to write outside we'll do a shorter rainy walk (bring a coat & good shoes!) and then head into the Bowling Green to write for the second hour. Details of this will be sent out nearer the time.
I'll bring a book on British birds, and some extra pens and paper in case anyone's forgotten any.
Bring your notebook, something to write with, and any nature knowledge you'd like to share. (Plus good shoes for walking and a raincoat!)
There'll be a sharing circle at the end where you'll have the option to read anything you've written or share any thoughts you've had throughout the morning.
There's tiered admission; if you can afford general admission please know it's greatly appreciated, but concession entries are available for those who need them.
