After running a series of poetry workshops in HMP Bristol in 2003, she was then employed by the Library as creative writing facilitator for their Storybook Dads project. The project was very successful, involving over 40 prisoners and receiving excellent feedback from both participants and families. The project was run again in 2005/2006.

She also designed and ran an OCN level (1 & 2 ) creative writing course for the Education department which she ran for 2 years. Other groups she have worked with have been in community settings and with young people with eating disorders.

Kates training has been in the creative arts and she has experience working in dance, visual arts/crafts and creative writing. Kate has always been interested in the connection between creativity and healing and believe that we are all 'creative artists' in our own way.

Workshop

So many of us have had the idea of writing a book and now this is a great opportunity to see if you can do it, Kate will guide you if you dont know where to start, if you have started and faltered then Kate will give you help and feedback.

This class will be an informal but a friendly and supportive group, in a relaxed atmosphere you can start to let the creative juices flow and let the journey begin.



You will be encouraged to :


  • Develop writing skills and techniques
  • Learn about plot, setting and character
  • Practice editing and re-drafting
  • Give and receive constructive feedback



The good part about it being a short 5 course is that you can try it without committing for a long period of time and during the winter months before the holiday season gets into full swing...go on...give it a go!
