Creative Writing in Nature Course
Since October 2019, Dose of Nature have run a six-week writing course
Back for 2020, Dose of Nature are running our 'Creative Writing in Nature' course for the second time. This group is offered to those participating in the Dose of Nature Prescription
programme.
This is a six-week gentle course aimed at appreciating the natural world. We are a small supportive group who come together weekly to encourage one another to experiment and play with language. There is no right or wrong when it comes to creative writing. This course is about pleasure. The pleasure we get from being out in nature and the pleasure of finding just the right words to express ourselves.
Each week we spend as much time as possible outside - observing, touching, smelling, listening, possibly even tasting (if it happens to be edible) what interests us most. The natural world has a way of offering human beings both inspiration and relaxation. That is a perfect combination when it comes to aiding creativity.
