Creative Writing with Joy Winkler

An inspiring creative writing workshop with a former Cheshire Poet Laureate.

  • Booking essential

"Premonitions and warnings" 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: “We all tend to steer clear of doom mongers in our actual lives. But reading stories and poems that include dark warnings and premonitions of bad days ahead can be strangely compulsive. We will look at some examples and use the darkening days of the year as inspiration for this workshop.” (Includes: Creative Writing Workshop with a former Cheshire Poet Laureate, Park Entry and Garden Entry)
