What is it?
These workshops are designed to improve your command of language and communication, by exposing the power of the written word and exploring your own creativity. The two sessions are led by leading North East writers, Linda France and Ellen Phethean.
Who's it for?
These workshops are for beginners, and for people who are confident in writing but who would like to extend their confidence with words.
What will I be doing?
The Blank Page with Linda France
Join poet Linda France for a day of creative writing. In the morning the workshop will focus on creative journal writing – how to write about real life and capture real events and experiences. In the afternoon you will be taken through the process of how to write a poem.
