Virtual Events from Jo Parfitt

During continued social restrictions due to the coronavirus, Jo Parfitt is  running online virtual events until further notice. 

Speedwriting

Speedwriting, freewriting, stream of consciousness, writing longhand for ten minutes, putting the thoughts that pop into your head down on the page while ignoring the internal censor may be the best thing you ever learned to do. Join us and try it for yourself. Meetings are free of charge and take place using Zoom every Friday afternoon.

Speedwrite live on Facebook. Jo will give a topic at the start and then all participants will write for ten minutes, after which up to ten people will share their work while you can give feedback in the ‘chat’ section.  Stay as long as you like. Be inspired and awaken your writer within.

Beating Writer's Block with Tom Evans

Author, Tom Evans, recently published his 15th book, Soulwaves and back in 2009 he published the excellent Blocks, which Jo needed badly at the time. Soulwaves took a massive 15 years to see the light of day because, you guessed it, Tom too had writers’ block – not with his other books but with this one. Why do we suffer writers’ block and how do we get over it? Watch Jo's interview with Tom on Zoom live/Facebook live video on Thursday 2nd April to find out for yourself. 

Virtual Writers' Circle

A writers’ circle is a fun, inspiring, informative, safe, supportive space for writing, sharing and feedback. Events take place twice a week using Zoom.
