I Am A Writer Workshop: Collingham Library (Wednesday 22 May)

With the guidance of professional writer, Pippa Hennessy, you’ll have the chance to explore your creativity in a relaxed and welcoming environment. 

There’ll be space for you to share your thoughts and stories and to try different types of writing – from poetry and memoir to fiction and playwriting. 

No previous writing experience is necessary, and this is all about trying something new and having a go.  

Suitable for adults of all ages and young people aged 9 and over. 

Pippa Hennessy is a Nottingham-based writer. Her poetry, graphic fiction, short fiction and creative non-fiction have been published in a range of anthologies and magazines and she is now writing digital poetry – experimenting with what words can do when they’re not tied to the printed page. She has been facilitating writing workshops in a range of settings – schools, prisons, universities, libraries, museums and art galleries – for over ten years. Since January 2021 she has been a lead writer on Writing East Midlands’ Beyond the Spectrum project, which provides free online writing workshops and a range of other activities for autistic adults and young people. She is autistic (diagnosed aged 54), and awaiting ADHD assessment.
