Pen to Paper

A poetry course providing inspiration, writing activities, tips and tricks to get you putting pen to paper! 

Another non-regular post from me, but I just wanted to share the story and success of my recent poetry writing course, 'Pen to Paper'!

'Pen to Paper' was originally commissioned by the Anchor Gallery in Birmingham, as a part of their Spring 2018 season of poetry events. Held in the gallery space, a small but hard-working group met for three 2-hour sessions across March, April and May. Each session included two mini-activities, a main poetry activity, and a guest activity run by a special guest poet. One-to-one sessions with myself and the guest poet were offered at the end, where discussions ranged from editorial advice, to guidance on performing and publishing work.
