  • Booking essential

"It's in the stars" - Join us for this exciting creative writing workshop with former Cheshire Poet Laureate, published author, playwright and experienced workshop facilitator, Joy Winkler. Of this workshop Joy says: "In this workshop, we will look for inspiration in predictions and charts. At how star signs might be deceitful or misinformed. At the history of astrology in different cultures and its influence in storytelling. We could write our own version of horoscopes to influence our characters and take them somewhere unexpected. (Includes: Creative Writing Workshop with a former Cheshire Poet Laureate, Park Entry and Garden Entry)
