Wednesdays 6.30pm to 9pm. 12th February to 4th March

This Creative Writing course by Linda Cleary explores the theme of identity, distorted reflections and doppelgängers. Other than our own discussions and considerations on work produced during the course, we will look at extracts from, amongst others, Haruki Murakami, Fyodor Dostoevsky and Alfred de Musset.

Participants will work from the course theme and given briefs and exercises – writing and developing characters, scenes and narratives - producing pieces of writing within session time and utilising various writing techniques and methods.

“Turning all this over in my mind, I started to imagine another me somewhere, sitting in a bar, nursing a whiskey, without a care in the world. The more I thought about it, the more that other me became the real me, making this me here not real at all.” Haruki Murakami, A Wild Sheep Chase.

Other Creative Writing courses are available to download in the online shop at anytime and are also rolled out live at various times, also editing and mentoring services. Please see the website for all details: https://www.freewriterscentre.org/
