Castle Writers goes digital

As many of you may recall, a few weeks ago I was championing the use of a Busy Book. More than an excuse to buy yet more notebooks, the real function of the book is to offer a place, set apart from other writing projects, in which to explore and experiment.

You may recall that I had also discovered that CASTLE WRITERS, the writing group run by Norwich author and artist, Amanda Addison, which prior to lockdown, met in Norwich Castle had gone digital. The similarly named group is still meeting but now online and Amanda is posting monthly creative writing resources to keep the words flowing using artefacts from the castle as inspiration.

This month the focus is on FOOD and along with the fabulous exercises which are guaranteed to get the words flowing, there's a food based extract from THE SECRET SEASIDE ESCAPE included!

Here's the link if you would like to download the class and give the exercises a try. I thoroughly recommend them all and they only take a few minutes. You never know where your imagination and pencil will lead you.
