On Tuesday, 21st October, at Waterlooville Community Centre, we are holding a creative space workshop / gathering on the topic of the challenges of that tricky first page. I warmly invite you to join us. Whether you are deliberating over the number of lines in your first paragraph or whether to create a sense of urgency with action or captivate the reader with poetic prose, bring your ideas and a notepad and pen and let's get together and set the scene.
Attendees are encouraged to come prepared with a passage that is relevant to the theme of our discussion. This could be their favourite sentence, a thought-provoking paragraph, a compelling page, an inspiring chapter, or an entire book that reflects the topic at hand. We invite participants to share their chosen text with the group, providing insight into its significance and how it relates to our conversation. This creates a rich and engaging atmosphere for all attendees to connect over shared ideas and perspectives.
This event is intended to be interactive and collaborative, rather than a traditional class or writing session. Participants will be encouraged to engage in a group chat that focuses on a topic related to writing, where they can exchange ideas in a supportive environment.
