SUMMARY:Kick-starters with Malika Booker: Workshop
DESCRIPTION:THIS WORKSHOP IS ONLY FOR SQUAD 11. BOOK HERE. \nA common symptom of the belief that writing is a gift achieved only through instant inspiration is being defeated by the blank page\, writers block\, or sitting to write the master piece and being consistently unhappy with the results on the page. This workshop will explore and experiment with different strategies for kick starting writing. The aim is to leave with several drafts as well as starting lines for poems. We will use journals\, freewrites\, objects\, word banks\, rhyme trains\, and exploratory walks etc to gather\, tinker\, play and fiddle with strategies for handling that empty page. We will cast various fishing lines to see what baits work for us. \n  \nYou are required to bring the following: a discarded poem/ prose piece (a piece of work that you have been working on that just does not work\, please print it out 2 hard copies\, 14 font\, double spaced\, single side)\, a favourite or unusual word from the dictionary with the meaning and history\, scissors\, glue sticks and notebooks. You may also want to bring a drink/food\, although there will be a break in which you’re welcome to go out to buy lunch. Be prepared to have fun. \n  \nThis workshop is primarily for Squad 11\, if you are a grad and want to be put on the waiting list please email libby@writingsquad.com. \n

SUMMARY:Experiments & Play with Stevie Ronnie: Workshop
DESCRIPTION:SQUAD 11 WORKSHOP. TICKETS HERE. \nIn this workshop we will be exploring how playing with words and using constraints can help us to overcome the blank page and generate new and original ideas for our writing. \nWe’ll begin by playing with the music and rhythm of words\, generating poems and exploring the power of recognising and switching between our critical and creative mindsets. We’ll then move on to explore experimental techniques in both poetry and prose that were pioneered by the 1960’s French surrealist group Oulipo (short for “Ouvrior de Littérature Potentielle” or “Workshop of Potential Literature\,” in English). The founders of Oulipo believed that the only way to be truly free in your writing was to impose constraints on the process of composition. \nDuring the workshop we’ll also be playing with and reflecting on collaboration and how working with others can open up new possibilities for our writing. \nYou should bring something to write on/with. You may also want to bring some water and food if you like\, although there will be a break during which you’re welcome to go out and buy food. \n  \nThis workshop is primarily for Squad 11\, if you are a grad and want to be put on the waiting list please email libby@writingsquad.com.
