DESCRIPTION:Join the Writers of Essex on Saturday 5 September from 12pm for our next online meeting\, ‘Poetry as Personal Practice: Writing for Creativity\, Wellbeing and Healing with Michelle Heighway’. \n \nPoetry has the power to help us slow down\, reconnect with ourselves and discover our authentic voice.

Alongside readings from her collection Step Into My Flow\, she shares practical techniques to inspire your own writing\, ending with a gentle poetry exercise and the opportunity to reflect and share. \nWhether you’re an experienced writer or just beginning\, this session will leave you feeling inspired\, connected and ready to write. \nAll members welcome! \nTo attend the meeting\, click the Going button below and fill out the RSVP form.
