Our first workshop at The Ink Table





Our first workshop at The Ink Table was a beautiful way to spend a Saturday.
Begining with some warm-up writing exercises led by Sophie and Clare and a walk around Merbein to gather inspiration from life everyone settled in for the main event.
Altered book poetry.
Similar to magnetic poetry where you are given a pre-determined set of words to create a work from, in this exercise people were given a page to cut into single words and re-construct as a piece of writing.
Everyone got right into it and afternoon tea was forgotten.
We are thinking to make a 'zine from the work from the event, we'll let you know how we go.
By the way, comments should now be open to anyone, google account holder or not!
