This course is great for beginners and also for writers at any level who wish to generate lots of new ideas and material, or who want to return to writing after a pause.

This fun and playful course will use different creative writing exercises and prompts to get you working, in a friendly and supportive environment. We will set out from a new starting point each week, and experiment with different techniques and ways into prose writing.

Week 1) Place (mental maps and sensory detail)
Week 2) People (picture prompts and character sketches)
Week 3) Objects
Week 4) Food
Week 5) Gaps (collage and “found text”)
Week 6) Journeys

Your tutor Sonia Lambert is a clear, kind and approachable facilitator who expertly guides the group to achieve wonderful results. She is a published novelist and teaches for Collage Writing Room and Goldsmiths.
