Poetry of Place | Creative Writing with Poet Moyra Donaldson for 18+rs | Ballycastle

Friday 16 October | 5.30-7.30pm

Cost £25 full, £23 concession | Tutor Moyra Donaldson

Sheskburn House, Ballycastle

This workshop will look at why and how we might write about ‘place’. Places where we live or have lived; places we have visited; remembered places and imagined places – how can we best evoke a sense of them in words? We will discuss the topic and look at some relevant poems, before each writing our own first draft of a place poem.

Provided in partnership with the Ballycastle Writers Group.
