Open writing circle

_February_ Writing in the footsteps of your heroes
What writers do you most admire? Please bring an example of great writing. You will look at the structure and technique and, for the writing prompt, adopt some of the DNA of your hero. Be prepared for magic. (You can also use one of the books that I bring for inspiration too)

Words and stories reside within all of us, waiting to be discovered
Our monthly Open Writing Circle invites people with all levels of writing experience to explore their creativity and imagination.
In each session, one of Berlin’s many exceptional writers, poets, artists, or curators will create a vibrant and collective learning experience.
Whether you’re interested in fiction, memoir, non-fiction, or poetry, this supportive space encourages you to uncover the words within you. We’ll draw upon techniques used in writing workshops to unleash your innate talent in a collaborative environment that will allow for a dynamic exchange of ideas and insights.
This workshop aims to create an affirming, playful and empowering space for queer people to explore, express and celebrate their identities as well as to provide a platform for the stories of the LGBTQIA+ community to be shared, heard and valued.

Andrew G. Marshall is an author, playwright, poet and psychotherapist based. He is also a founder member of the Berlin Queer Writer’s Circle. He has written 20 self help books that have been translated into 20 different languages. His plays have been performed all over the UK and Ireland.
