Creative writing classes new and old

Another opportunity for Brockley writers to hone their skills... David Bottomley writes:

This will be my eighth season of running the Jack Writers Workshop At the Brockley Jack Theatre and this year we have designed a brand new course for playwrights and those wishing to try their hand at writing for the stage. We are now taking applications to join the group.

I have also decided to launch a series of new creative writing workshops at the Brockley Art House where I run monthly open art salons exhibiting the work of London artists and a unique selection of vintage, antique art and collectables.

The writing workshops are starting fortnightly on Wednesday evenings 7.30pm- 9.30pm and Saturday afternoons 1pm – 3pm for intimate groups of people wanting to find the time and impetus to write this winter.

Again, although writing is a solitary pursuit, it is far nicer shared with a small group of like minded individuals to compare notes and progress through different exercises.

With a bottle of wine to share on Wednesdays or afternoon tea on Saturday afternoons the idea is to keep a social and relaxing atmosphere whilst also encouraging a rapid response of writing to a number of given exercises to kick start those who may have come to an impasse with their writing or just wanting to find new ways into creative writing.
