Hello Poetry lovers,
We are delighted to confirm that Emily Chapman has agreed to run a series of poetry workshops exclusively for Poets with Parkinson's members who would like to improve their poetic skills. Emily is a final year PhD Creative Writing student at Newcastle University and has published short stories, creative and non-fiction. If you are interested in reading any of her work, please email Keith at team@poetswithparkinsons.co.uk.
Each workshop will comprise of:
Discussion around one established writer
A "way in" to writing a poem
Discussion of three pieces of submitted work.
The discussion will explore how the writer might continue to work on and possibly improve the piece. These will be used on a first come, first seen basis, but if your work is not used in one workshop it will likely be used in a later session.
All members of Poets with Parkinsons are welcome to sit in on the sessions regardless of whether they have submitted work. The workshops will be run in eight units over eight months taking place on the last Friday of the month. Kicking off on Friday 29th March Register NOW.
Wishing Peace and Love to you all
The Team from The Wall
