George Szirtes and Helen Mort to lead Writers' Centre masterclasses
George Szirtes and Helen Mort will be leading new workshops for poets run by Writers’ Centre Norwich early in the new year. A Masterclass series (£240/£200 for three workshops) for advanced poets includes a weekend workshop with internationally renowned poet George Szirtes and a class on structure and form led by Helen Mort, whose first collection, Division Street, has been shortlisted for the TS Eliot prize. A second poetry set of workshops, the Environment Series (£180/£150 for three workshops), with Deryn Rees-Jones, Hannah Jane Walker, and David Morley, will have participants writing in a train travelling across Norfolk and in the grounds of Norwich cathedral. Each workshop can be booked individually if required. WCN has also organised a free Writing for Performance Workshop led by Kayo Chingonyi, and more spoken word workshops will be confirmed in the new year. More details
