About this Event

I sometimes wonder how different our lives would look if we received more encouragement, and how different the lives around us would look if we offered more encouragement! It is perhaps an underused virtue.

In this session we’ll be using creative writing to explore the role encouragement has played in our lives and think about how it could be used to make a difference in the different areas of our lives we’re involved in!

During this session we will:

  • Learn and practice using writing disciplines
  • Learn and practice exercises that enable creativity
  • Encouraged to write creatively in our preferred style
  • Experience the dignity of being agents of change!

No Previous writing experience required!
