| Unleashing our writing power with Judi Goodwin! |
A big thanks to everyone who worked so hard to make last weekend's Festival of Writing such an enjoyable experience. The facilities at Warwick University are excellent and it made a good, central venue for the National Association of Writers' Groups annual conference. Even the weather perked up and I'm sure a good time was had by all.
Highlights for me were the talk given by Steve Bowkett, the workshops run by the poet Maggie Harris and "Tales from the Wireless" by the wonderful Paul Dodgson - he's been my favourite tutor on three Ty Newydd courses in the past and it was great to see him again. Steve - a hypnotherapist, teacher and writer - entitled his presentation "Boosting Self-Confidence For Writers" and it certainly boosted mine. Maggie's second session, "Love, Sex and Other Serious Stuff in Poetry" attracted a very appreciative audience and some of the poems generated by the workshop were amazing. A thoroughly worthwhile couple of days.
