Shirley McClure is facilitating a one-day workshop of creative writing. I've attended Shirley's Writing From The Body workshop and it was a day well spent, she's such an experienced, creative and calm facilitator.

Writing from Stillness invites you to slow down and connect with your own creativity. Simple mindfulness techniques are used prior to writing.

It is suitable for beginners & people who have been writing for a while.
