Welcome to the creative writing workshop podcast.
The title of this episode is Cure.
Just a reminder this isn’t a writing advice podcast, it’s an invitation for you to get your own words down on the page.
You’ll need pen and paper, the notes app on your phone, or a new word doc.
The first few minutes will be a writing warm up. Then I’ll talk a little about why I chose the topic and why it’s interesting for writers and we’ll get to the main writing session.
During the writing I’ll speak about every 2 to 5 minutes to give you a chance to concentrate. The idea is that I keep track of time so you can concentrate on the writing. Towards the end of the writing I’ll give you an opportunity to press pause, so you can write for longer if you like. Then I’ll invite you to reflect on your writing.
A few episodes ago we took a slightly metaphorical look at the concept of poison, today we’re going to be much more literal with the idea of a cure.
