Manchester writer Tania Hershman is running a special fundraising Zoom writing workshop on Oct 6th, ‘Sounds Inspired!’ to raise funds to offer a free place on the upcoming Arvon queer poetry course she is co-tutoring in January for someone from an underrepresented community who wouldn’t otherwise be able to attend.

About the Workshop:

Join Tania for an interactive writing workshop buzzing with inspiration, exploration and play – inspired by sound. Sound means so many things: music (rhythm, beats, humans, whales, birdsong); acoustics, (science of sound, what it is, why it is, how it’s made); noise, whether that’s the traffic of our cities or the hum of the fridge. Sound is about speaking, listening, hearing, voice, tone, rhythm. Come think about, read, discuss and experience sound in ways you’ve never imagined, to create new pieces of writing in whatever word-shape you choose – or enrich your works-in-progress.

Details and booking for the Zoom workshop here.

To help with the fundraising, Tania’s poetry publisher, Nine Arches, is offering 10 Mystery Poetry Book Bundles worth over £100 for only £50 here.
