Testimonials from Lucy's previous workshops

"Very well organised, inclusive and interesting. I left inspired and calmed at the same time." 2024

"Lucy is a kind, sensitive guide through creativity. This was a fun way to spend an Autumnal afternoon – wish that it could have lasted longer!" 2024

"Lucy made writing seem ever so easy" 2024

"Thanks so much for the workshop — I really liked it, loved the combination of learning and doing. To my mind, there's not enough learning in a lot of creative writing workshops, I mean learning about movements/skills/practices, and reflecting on these and I really enjoyed the range you brought in and your reflections on them. I also really like the homework aspect, which I haven't really had before — very good motivation ! :-)" 2022

"I enjoyed meeting other writers and hearing the work they read out as well as their comments and thoughts." 2020
