Explore Devon Landscapes Through Writing

This 5-week creative writing course is for anyone who loves words and wants to connect with the beauty and character of Devon. Together, we’ll explore a range of places, both familiar and mysterious, through images, texts and memory. Using these landscapes and prompts as inspiration, you’ll create stories, capture memories, and share reflections in a supportive group setting.

It’s a relaxed and welcoming space for all levels of writers. You’ll be invited to share your work with the group, but there’s no pressure.

Please note: we won’t be travelling to locations; all activities will be based on visual prompts, written sources, and your own imagination.
