Writing East Midlands are delighted to bringing The Writer’s Den, our flagship non-residential creative writing retreat for 9-14 year olds, back to Derby Book Festival in 2017
The Writer’s Den is a gymnasium for the imagination. You’ll take part in creative writing workshops, performances, competitions and games all delivered by professional writers and designed to keep you inventing and imagining long after the Den closes. You’ll meet lots of other people your age who love writing too and you’ll leave the Den with new friends and new skills.
We’ll round off the day with a special performance by Joshua Seigal, an award winning poet for children and author of two poetry collections published by Bloomsbury. Mums, Dads, grandparents, brothers and sisters are all able to come and join us for his performance. If you can’t wait for June, you can find out a little bit more about Joshua, and make your own Joshua Seigal, here.
