Join our new writing
course in Manchester
Writing in and outside
the body: 3 week writing course for underrepresented writers
In
this three week course we will look at the poetics of our names,
as well as the spaces we occupy. Exercises will span reading and writing
of contemporary poetry, dream
journals, photography, bookmaking and visual art, using
Manchester Library’s
special book collection. This course seeks a multidisciplinary
approach to writing about the tactile in new and intimate ways.
This
series of workshops is suitable for beginning, emerging or
established writers looking to write about what we contain within and what we find
without our bodies.
