Event 77
Kathryn Tann
Nature Writing Walkshop
– Meeting Place on Festival Site
Put on your walking boots, grab a notebook and join creative producer Kathryn Tann on a writing ‘walk-shop’, using the landscape to shape your stories. Practice using all your senses and surroundings to create memorable and transporting pieces of writing, with a focus on creative non-fiction. You don’t need to be an outdoors expert to bring nature and place into your creative work.
Starting from and returning to the Festival site, the walk covers around 1km in the environs of Hay-on-Wye, with regular stops and writing exercises along the way. Tann’s book Seaglass blends creative non-fiction with nature writing and memoir, portraying the journey of a young woman navigating modern adulthood.
Please wear appropriate footwear and outdoor gear, and bring your own notebook and pen or pencil. We regret that we can't accommodate dogs on this walk.
