Courage of Conscience project
We will be setting up an additional workshop as part of ProPeace Chesterfield's Courage of Conscience project, which celebrates the lives of the conscientious objectors of World War One. We will be using original source material to inspire our own poems, stories, and plays about the brave men who chose not to fight in the war, and the ordeals they faced as a result. If you are interested in taking part in the workshop, please complete the form below and send it to [email protected].

Interview with Emma Pass
We were recently lucky enough to have Emma Pass, author of ACID and The Fearless with us at one of our writing sessions. Emma ran a great workshop about plotting and allowed us to interview her about her writing experiences. You can hear a recording here:

Night Writer book launch
Our latest anthology, Night Writer, was recently published, and to celebrate we held a book launch at a special session of Spire Writes, a monthly poetry night held in Chesterfield. Members of the group read out work from the anthology, which was a nerve-wracking first for some of us. A good time was had by all, and the evening was capped off with an excellent performance by the headline act, guest poet Kate Fox. If you would like to obtain your very own copy of Night Writer, please email [email protected] for more details. |
