The aim of this workshop is to help you become a better writer. And give you the confidence to make a submission to the Write about Walking home competition. Over the course of 120 minutes we’ll use two complementary forms – poetry and flash fiction – and draw inspiration from journeys on foot that we have made. We will look at how observation can inspire and hone fictional techniques; the benefits of movement to creative thinking and practice; as well as how to approach editing and preparing your work for submission or publication including ‘reading aloud’ and recording.
Led by prolifically published flash author E.E. Rhodes.
During the workshop you will learn more about submitting Write about Walking Home writing competition.
We are offering a number of early bird discounted tickets, and for those unable to genuinely afford the ticket price we have two subsidised tickets available, and two free places (Please get in touch if you qualify). Price of the workshop includes up to two free entries to the Write about Walking Home writing competition (worth €9).

The Privilege of Walking and Writing: A Journey Down the Street and Across the World
During the past many summers, I’ve explored the relationship between walking and writing. As Kathleen Rooney, our flâneuse laureate of Chicago, wrote “A walk is almost never the fastest way to get somewhere. But both walks and poems can afford a more textured and deep experience of space and time.” Source: The Privilege of Walking
