Write & Shine with The Tablet - Early Morning Writing Workshops: Waiting & Wonder

Start Your Morning with Words, Wonder & Creativity We’re delighted to be partnering once again with Write & Shine for a special series of early-morning creative writing workshops, led by author and facilitator Gemma Seltzer, founder of the acclaimed Write & Shine workshop series. These relaxed and welcoming sessions are a chance to pause, reflect and get creative at the start of your day. Through imaginative writing prompts inspired by literature, art and the natural world, Gemma will encourage you to explore ideas, memories and stories in new ways. You’ll write throughout each session, with no pressure to share your work. The aim is simply to let your ideas emerge freely and discover where your imagination takes you. Whether you’re completely new to creative writing or an experienced writer looking for fresh inspiration, or evening purchasing this package as a unique gift, each participant will leave each workshop with new pieces of writing, creative prompts to explore and renewed momentum. Workshop 3: Waiting & Wonder Wednesday 9 December Inspired by the themes of Advent — hope, anticipation and light in the darkness — we’ll explore longing, promise and wonder through a series of guided writing exercises. We’ll also take time to notice the beauty and moments of awe hidden within everyday life, and consider how these observations can become the starting point for creative writing. Craft focus: Transforming personal experiences, memories, observations and everyday moments into compelling creative writing. Start Your Day Inspired All workshops take place on Zoom. Arrival: from 8.15am Workshop: 8.30am–10.00am What to bring: a notebook, a pen and your favourite morning drink Come as you are, take some time for yourself, and start the morning with words, creativity and a little wonder.
