Question 1

Do I have to be an experienced writer?

Accepted Answer

No! These friendly workshops are open to anyone, including shy new writers.

Question 2

Are there any concessions or bursaries?

Accepted Answer

Yes!  The standard ticket for 30 days of workshops costs £90, with an option to buy a weekly ticket for just £30. But we don't want anyone to miss the workshops because they are skint. If you are unable to pay the full amount, please use the pay-what-you-can option!

Question 3

Do I have to come every day?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely not! There's no expectation that you'll be able to attend every day - though of course, you're very welcome to! If you miss a workshop, you can watch it later, via our Zoom recordings.

Question 4

How do I join the workshops?

Accepted Answer

The workshops will happen every day on Zoom. You will be sent a link which will enable you to join. If you're not confident using Zoom,  there are lots of useful articles online which can help you to prepare, for example:  https://www.supernormal.com/blog/how-to-join-a-zoom-meeting

Question 5

How will the workshops run?

Accepted Answer

Clare and Miriam will introduce inspiring texts with discussion before a setting quick writing exercises. There will normally be 3 periods of quiet writing during the hour. You won't be expected to share your writing during the hour - it's all about generating new material

Why does the ticket state 30th June?
