Two Workshops I'm facilitating in July

The King Died, the Queen Died: Understanding Plot with Anthony Joseph

Saturdays 12th & 19th July 12 - 3 pm at Brighton Writers' Centre
£32/£30 concs, Friends of THE SOUTH £30/£28 concs

Plot at times takes on a mysterious quality. This workshop aims to dispel the myths and to show the universality of plotting in storytelling. Participants will work individually and in groups, examining the relationship of characterisation to plot, generating stories and taking part in writing exercises which will develop suspense and tension in their fiction.

Sounds of Poetry

Music and poetry course to commemorate the Windrush Anniversary.

Work alongside musicians to create work in commemoration of the 60th anniversary of the arrival of 492 Caribbean men and women on the Empire Windrush at Tilbury docks in June 1948.

Participants will explore aspects of identity, exile and diaspora and how the influx of Caribbean musicians in particular changed the cultural landscape of the UK, introducing Calypso, Ska and Reggae to Britain.
