Learning in the local community has changed the lives of many adults across North Yorkshire and you could be one of them!
Research shows that learning throughout adulthood and into later life encourages important social interaction, gives a sense of hope and purpose and helps cope with stress, all of which has a positive impact on maintaining and improving our mental health and well-being.
Creative writing Chapter 3 is a fun and therapeutic way of building confidence, developing creativity and practising key language skills.
Channel your flair for storytelling, script writing or poetry or help process your emotions by writing a memoir, script or poem about a significant event in your life.
During the course you will have opportunities to:
• polish an existing piece of creative writing (imaginary or based on a real-life event)
• share selections of your writing and invite feedback
• revise and edit the structure and content of your piece
• explore effective titles, opening lines and closing lines
• proofread your work for spelling, grammar and punctuation errors
• discuss options for wider sharing: competitions, publishing, self-publishing
This course is for seasoned writers who are already confident of their writing skills or who wish to benefit further from writing as therapy.
