About the Event
Hi there ✨
Whoever you are, you’re warmly invited to join us for a full-day writing workshop exploring the themes of Love & Desire on Saturday 27th June in Old Street, London 📍
We’ll spend the day reading excerpts and poems about love and desire, then writing to prompts, with food & drink, space to think, and time to write something honest, strange, or quietly intense ☕🍷
Together, we’ll be exploring love in a variety of forms: tenderness, lust, queer desire, and heartbreak 💌
We’ll be drawing inspiration from poets such as Sappho, Audre Lorde, Pablo Neruda, Adrienne Rich, John Donne, Ocean Vuong, Carol Ann Duffy, Natalie Diaz, and Richard Siken 📚
Alongside short readings and extracts, we’ll be writing throughout the day using guided prompts and exercises 🌿
