Come and join us for a workshop on nature writing as we head into the Christmas season. While the nights might be long and the days short, there is great beauty in the natural world at this time of year. From the robins who decorate our greetings cards to carols featuring holly and ivy, there is much to celebrate.

You can expect to:

- Explore different types of nature writing celebrating a range of fauna and flora.

- Hear examples of nature writing from a variety of authors.

- Try out some creative writing exercises for yourself.

No previous writing experience is required for this informal and friendly morning. We look forward to seeing you there!
