Hi there ✨

WHOEVER you are, you’re warmly invited to join us for an all-day creative writing workshop ✍️ + food & drink 🍴☕🍷 + literary handouts 📖

Together, we’ll be exploring “Poetry of the City” 🏙️📝

By the end of the day, you’ll have a handful of your own poems written 🎶, ready to take home and edit.

What do we mean by “Poetry of the City”? 🤔

It’s simply poetry written in, around, about, or connected to the experience of living in the city 🌆.
We’ll be reading poets who capture urban life in verse, and trying out their styles, metres, rhyme schemes, and other poetic devices 🎭.

Okay, so what’s the plan? 🗓️

  • Start the day with teas/coffees ☕ and a warm-up writing session ✍️
  • Break for brunch 🥐 at Finch’s Pub
  • Dive into reading, writing, and supportive conversation 💬
  • Round off with a late afternoon/early evening drink 🍺🍷🥤

What’s included? 🎁

  • A full day of creative writing workshops & exercises ✨
  • Tea or coffee to start ☕
  • A delicious Finch’s Pub brunch 🥗
  • A late-afternoon/early-evening drink 🍻
  • A FREE Penguin mini classic book 📚🐧 to take home and keep!

What do you need to bring? 🎒

  • Yourself 🙌
  • A pen & pad 🖊️📓 (or a laptop 💻 if you prefer)

Our style 🌱

We create a friendly, supportive, and inclusive atmosphere 💜.Everybody/anybody is welcome — no experience necessary 🌈.No pressure to pitch or share in front of the group 🙅‍♂️.

If you have any doubts or questions, text me on 📱 +44 (0) 7534 981 636 and I’ll do my best to help.

Warm wishes 🌞,
