Sunday Creative Writing Workshop: Five Weeks of Spring

Join me, Anna Dempsey, for five Sundays of guided fiction writing, sharing words in a tender, supportive community.

This course is perfect for writers of any stage who want to explore their voice, try new ideas, finish a writing project or connect with fellow creatives in a relaxed/kind environment. Each week we will focus on different elements of short story/novel writing including plot, dialogue, character, setting and pacing. We'll be looking at spring inspired writing and pop culture to do this. Think the ridiculous film Spring Breakers meets Anne of Green Gables meets Mary Oliver in a field of sunflowers.

These 5 Weeks are a great time to start a new short story, novel or dive back into some old idea notebooks.

When: Sundays, 11.30-1.30 Dates (please note we are skipping 5 April because of the holiday): 29 March, 12 April, 19 April, 26 April, 3 May

Where: SET Social Peckham (we will have the whole place to ourselves, so it will be very quiet)

What to Expect:

• Guided writing exercises each week, handouts and optional writing homework
• Opportunities to share your work out loud with a welcoming group
• A chance to be part of a creative community (yay friends)
• Each week, two writers share up to 2,500 words and receive thoughtful feedback from me and the group

*This course is an inclusive feminist space open to all and writing or behaviour that includes transphobia, homophobia, sexism, racism, or other forms of discrimination will not be accepted.
