Come and join us for our workshop on nature writing. The creatures that I love the most are the ones with the power of flight. They have a spirit and freedom which captures the imagination. From birds to butterflies, from bees to bats, I hope these animals will inspire you too!

You can expect to:
- Explore different types of nature inspired by things with wings.
- 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!

Tea and coffee will be provided throughout the session. Please bring with you a pen and some paper for writing.*
