Writing Our Stories

Are you interested in unlocking the creative potential of storytelling?  This course will look at storytelling as a form of escapism - looking at things in a different way and reflecting on your own experiences.

The session will involve reading stories (fictional or real life) and talking about them.  We will look at simple techniques that have shaped these stories.  Following this, there will be activities that will ease you into the art of writing, and there will be a chance to share your writing with others, if you wish.
