Say hello,
Do you have half-finished poems tucked away in notebooks, on your phone, or in the margins of receipts? Or perhaps you've felt that spark, only to have it fizzle out before you can finish your thought. It's a common problem for many writers and can lead to creative burnout. We understand the loneliest part of the writing journey is leaving your words in the back of a dusty drawer without being shared.
This isn't some academic poetry club. Whether you’ve been writing your whole life or you're picking up a pen for the first time, all writers are welcome here. Seriously.
Why we think you'll love It;
Inclusive- our workshops are for everyone, we understand we all learn and process differently and so we will accomodate for you. Discrimination of any kind is not welcome here.
Connection- we know joining a new group can feel overwhelming, our team will be there to ensure you feel safe every step of the way, in a low-pressure environment.
Creative outlet- we provide a safe space for you to release your emotions and build your self-confidence.
Accessible - in all means of the word, we will work with your budget to ensure you can attend, we also accept NDIS (self-managed. plan-managed funding) just ask us how.
No fluff- This isn't your ordinary creative writing class, this is a chance to challenge yourself, connect and grow your confidence. We are big believers that the best way to learn is from each other, you will always have the opportunity to share if you wish to.
