January workshops- Fife Writes

 I'm looking forward to these workshops in January organised through www.fifewrites.org.uk Writing Workshop -  Tuesday 17th January 2023, 18:30 – 20:30 Facilitated by Marianne L. Berghuis 58 Bonnygate Coworking & Community Hub 58 Bonnygate Cupar, Fife KY15 4LD Parking available at Bonnygate Carpark, 2 minute walk to venue Did you know that writing can reduce stress, anxiety and help improve sleep and performance? The power of words really can create personal insights, growth and healing. With a focus on ‘writing for wellbeing’ you are invited to come along and explore ways to be creative and get your ideas on the page. We’ll be using techniques and writing prompts to let go and get our pens flowing with words across the paper. Who knows what amazing idea...

The business of being an author

I'm really enjoying participating on Dawn Geddes' The Business of Being an Author course, run through Lifelong Learning Dundee. I'm learning lots about routes to being published and I appreciate the contributions by other participants who are already published/ self-published.
