Sessions to keep your imagination on its toes, dive into story and stretch your writing skills.
6 Weeks from 7th May 2024 @ £162 Tuesdays, 7.15pm - 8.45pm Online via Zoom
An opportunity to release your imagination whilst learning some creative writing tips and techniques.
These sessions bring flexibility to thinking and writing, adding new methods and ways to your writer's toolbox, making you more versatile and helping you to write fresh passages and resolve issues in longer pieces of work. Craft texts with a sense of fun, throw rules to the wind, re-wild your writing and discover what blossoms with a little carefree abandon. An opportunity for new writers, those looking for fresh inspiration or wishing to bring more creativity into their lives. We will explore language, perspective, and the unexpected meeting of images through a series of original and varied exercises.
They aid in releasing 'writers' block', honour your inherent creativity, encourage self-expression and support well-being. They may also serve in progressing a longer piece of work.
"The course helped take me out of my comfort zone and I was able to dive deeper into my own imagination. I gained a new perspective on creative writing and the many forms it can take." - Morgan "I just wanted to say how much I've enjoyed the Writing course 'Play and Imagination' with Samantha Forrest. It's been very imaginative and hugely enjoyable.." - Carol
"My writing is being transformed by Samantha's sessions -- much more vivid, colourful and alive. Fun and challenging exercises, with all sorts of visual and audio stimuli, give permission to explore in a supportive environment. I now approach writing in an entirely different way, expanding my understanding and imagination for conveying aspects of (sometimes quite ordinary!) things. I have more awareness of the words I choose and the feelings I hope to evoke in a reader. It's been liberating as a new writer -- and I only signed up for fun!" - Roz
