Details

Events for the Brighid Festival, to take place February 15-17 at Brescia University College in London, include Penn Kemp's writing playshop, Writing from Wildness and Wonder into Wisdom: Finding Your Rhythm in Words Creative Writing begins in wonder, the wonder of perception before words drop into mind and onto page. With our present vocabulary, can we write from a child’s freshness? Schooling trains us in straight lines, not spirals. How do we find our way out of the straitjacket of English progressions from Subject to Verb to Object? Do we dare to write wild, to write large, to write into what we don’t know? Nature is seldom smooth but we are conditioned to think straight. Do we dare open to receive wild words, to spend an afternoon in the community of wild women writers?
