SUMMARY:Making Visible with Andrew McMillan
DESCRIPTION:SQUAD 10\, MANCHESTER – VENUE TBC \nAndrew’s third and latest collection\, pandemonium\, is an extraordinary raw exploration of fracture and distance\, of the mind and the body in trouble. Andrew says\, “one of the things I realise pandemonium one is trying to do is discover how to make the internal\, the emotional\, visible in a poem.” \nIn a practical workshop of reading examples and writing exercises Andrew will lead us in exploring the personal and how unseen things can make themselves visible in poems.

SUMMARY:Yes\, Poetry Can Handle This - Writing the Unpoetic
DESCRIPTION:ZOOM\, OPEN ALL SQUADS \nThis workshop looks at the thematic boundaries of poetry – the gnarly\, uncomfortable edges – and asks how we can write about things that are inherently unpoetic. There’s a tension between being gratuitously unpleasant vs. making good art that says the unsaid. We’re going to think about where that line is and how we can navigate it.

SUMMARY:10 Things Every Story Needs
DESCRIPTION:SQUAD 10\, LEEDS – VENUE TBC \nIn this workshop\, we take Mark’s ten questions and apply them to your favourite films\, films you hated and some movie classics. Whatever your genre\, the ten tests Mark takes you through can be applied to any form of writing – scripts\, novels\, short stories and even longer narrative poems.

SUMMARY:Awesome Prose - The Road
DESCRIPTION:One of the squad’s 3 Awesome Reading groups – designed to think about how we can read as writers. \nIf you want to join us\, then here’s what you need to know: \nWe will be reading Cormac McCarthy’s The Road. The text can be bought here. \nThe Road is the astonishing post-apocalyptic and Pulitzer Prize-winning novel by Cormac McCarthy. \nA father and his young son walk alone through burned America\, heading slowly for the coast. Nothing moves in the ravaged landscape save the ash on the wind. They have nothing but a pistol to defend themselves against the men who stalk the road\, the clothes they are wearing\, a cart of scavenged food – and each other.
