Valerie Collins of "In the Garlic" fame is working alongside another British writer, Nicola Thornton and have vacancies for their "Creative Writing Workshop" on June 6th, 2009 in Barcelona. The venue is only a few minutes walk from Passeig de Gràcia railway station.
Please contact them for more details on: bestwriterbcn@gmail.com
This is there last one in the current season. These have proved to be popular and well-attended across the span of the very diverse and different Expat orbit we rattle around in. However, this is only the beginning. Maybe it is too short notice to attend or you have other plans you are sewn up into . Not to worry. Why not ask around and see if you have other friends or neighbours who may be interested in attending one closer to your location. Do not forget to ask other non British Expats and locals who have a command of the English language, whether they would like to attend.
Valerie and Nicola are keen to explore the possibility of running these workshops closer to you if the numbers are right. Please drop them a line with any ideas or questions you may have.
There is more.
These are very experienced writers . We can learn an awful lot from them, even if we have been writing for years. They always have something new to offer. They have a wealth of writing experiences.
They are also running a very successful writing course (one evening a week) with people from the previous workshops they did. So you are not left out in teh cold after doing the first session.

To write or not to write , that is the question?
Go on! Have a go. You will then sit back and think, why didn't I start writing all those years ago. I know I did. My grandfather didn't start writing until he was 70. I didn't seriously take up writing as a career until I was 50- but I had scribbled for years. Now I am making up time!
I wish I could go to a workshop in Spain. Write on!
