Sessions begin with a look at & discussion about a piece of writing based on a new weekly theme (a poem, short story or memoir extract). Then there'll be individual writing tasks, or a group poem written together (depending on what the group wants to do!)
Sessions finish by reading our individual pieces of writing or reading out the group poem, and coming up with ideas for the following week's theme.
