Writing about the River - Workshop

Bringing together elements of nature writing and memoir this workshop will help
participants reflect on their relationship with the river – whether a specific location or on a
catchment scale. Bringing the personal view to the bigger picture offers connection with a
range of emotions: joy, wonder and hope; grief and rage.

There is an intention that river stories will be published as a future anthology.
