MULTI-DIMENSIONAL APPROACH Not everyone likes books but we all read the world around us...so we try to read On & Off the page.
Do you like tuning into your imagination & analytical sense? Ever been moved to action or inspiration by a book?
Do you think the full potential of a book lies in how people/society ‘apply’ and experience it ? We read non-fiction too and concepts for our times and we talk about adaptability potential – because SO many have been made into films, games etc.
Novellas are short but they demand the writer to manoeuvre intriguing ideas & immersive experiences.
They’re often seen as unusual with an illusive mystique – why is that ?
EACH SESSION We chat over wine, coffee etc. enjoying a little atmosphere from reading aloud, sharing quotes, insight and personal responses.... sometimes playing music tracks that you associate with the text.
After that we may :-
• Brainstorm / speculate on the ‘next life’ & adaptations of novellas
• Connect with Writers & Guests
• Appraise books in a more multi-dimensional way
Worst case scenario if you join…..you might wake up with an unexpected book ! or get involved in podcasting, design fictions, creative experiments & processes like collaborative writing to music.
Looking for “inventive rain”....
WHO'S IT FOR ?
• Open minded versatile folk from All walks of Life, humanities, disciplines etc.
• Readers, writers, non-readers, lovers of other media / arts and those interested in Creative Process.
