For all you poets out there, we hope you can join us at The Poetry Sessions. If you’re looking for some quality poetry writing time these are the workshops for you. Facilitated by Lou Smith from Writing Days, each session will focus on a different element of poetry using writing prompts to get your creativity flowing. Come and write in a relaxed environment, there’s no pressure to share your work, this is purely space and time for you to write and meet fellow writers. You’re welcome to come to one workshop or come to all.
