Prize-winning poet Ros Barber will help you hone your existing poems and inspire you to write new ones in a structured-yet-relaxing week of poetic focus
After a delicious breakfast, the mornings will be about knuckling down to writing, in structured workshops where you can generate new ideas and explore new approaches. Just before lunch, the group will give and receive feedback on any poems you’d like to share.
The afternoons are your own: for writing in the house or the extensive grounds, gaining inspiration from the surrounding countryside and villages, or just lazing by the pool allowing the ideas to flow to you. You’ll be offered a one-to-one mentoring session during the week, so bring a small portfolio of your work to discuss with Ros.
After the evening meal, we’ll gather together for a relaxed combination of poetry reading and discussion over a glass or two of wine.
