louder than words: themed writing workshop with anne-marie fyfe

Silence can speak with astounding clarity in our poems, as in our lives, not just of absence, emptiness, loss, but of the positive virtues of calm, of pause, of solitude, of escape, of quiet contemplation, of absenting oneself from the clamour of the quotidian, in order to reflect, recall, & create.

Discover how the unsaid, & the almost inaudible, can convey silence, both as tranquility, & as eeriness & trepidation: explore how writers, visual artists, even composers, capture the essence, the aura, of silence.

Join us & experience the creativity of Anne-Marie Fyfe’s Troubadour Sunday Gallery sessions where tasks & talk, led exercises & sources of inspiration (from literature, the visual arts & a much wider world) will fire your poetic imagination & have you producing real results in terms of finished poems & drafts (& a head fizzing with new ideas, new directions!), … as well as time for read-back to, & positive feed-back from, energised fellow-poets.
