Scottish Writers' Centre Nature Writing Beyond Landscape: Writing the World Around Us

This two-part workshop will first discuss a selection of different definitions of nature, the environment, and our surroundings, in terms of what constitutes a world. These ideas will flow into an auto-writing session during which participants will create a piece of new writing. In the second half, we’ll be taking a closer look at the work in terms of different forms, structure, and tone. The aim is to respond directly to ecological themes, and to explore ecological thought through writing beyond landscape.

Spaces for this event are limited, so if you would like to book a place please contact us at info@scottishwriterscentre.co.uk.
