In this workshop we focus on communicating without speaking to make our dialogue heavy passages more immersive and grounded. I wish I could have thought of a romantic title for this one, but really, it does what it says on the tin.
First time here? This is a workshop, so it’s all about you getting words down on the page. You’ll need pen and paper or the notes app on your phone,. 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 main session 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.
If you want to follow up this workshop with one where there’s a lot of talking (so you can brig verbal and non-verbal communication together) then you could try The Storm Outside…
