About this event
You’ll undertake a series of mini word- crafting experiments to hone skills and learn how to impact the reader/audience in specific ways. Familiar techniques, offered with a twist, include: sensory impressions, bodily experience, emotion, point of view, the narrative arc, rhythm, tension, voice and character. Practical work is accompanied by readings of inspirational poetry and underpinned by Bridget’s holistic theoretical approach – fusing creative writing, embodied psychology, nature-based and non-dual theory. Suitable for both fledgling and experienced wordsmiths in all genres.
Bridget Holding is a writer, university adult education tutor and lecturer (University of Exeter, Open University) and arts and body-based trauma-trained psychotherapist (MA in the therapeutic uses of the arts).
She’s given talks and facilitated courses at many organisations and festivals of literature.
There’s nothing she likes better than to turn traditional creative writing teaching methods upside down. The London School of Economics talked of her ‘revitalising traditional creative writing teaching’.
She’s also the founder of Wild Words.
