Join local writer Mary-Jane Holmes on this writing workshop which includes a two hour walk around the wonderful town of Richmond. As we stroll its paths, we will reflect on how our experience of environments shapes us and how by harnessing our powers of deep observation in relation to our surroundings, we can develop a more active way of seeing the world we inhabit.
This workshop will combine discussion, walking, listening to the work of writers and fun writing exercises. It is open to everyone whether you are a seasoned writer of any genre be that poetry, fiction or memoir or simply curious about the creative writing process.
Mary-Jane Holmes is a published and prize-winning poet who lives in Teesdale. Her latest book is ‘Set a crow to catch a crow’ (2023).
