Description
Whether you’re a seasoned author or absolute beginner, StrathWrites is open to all Strathclyders (staff, students and alumni) keen to galvanise their creative writing practice. Celebrating the 60-year anniversary of Strathclyde’s Royal Charter, the series offers events prompted by the questions that matter to us. Who are we? What does it mean to be a Strathclyder in 2024? How can we be more confident in expressing ourselves and ideas in writing?
Involving a mix of author talks, readings, Q&As, discussion and writing workshops, StrathWrites aims to provide a welcoming space for thinking across disciplines and levels of study. The sessions will be loosely structured and informal, designed around themes that define the ambitious and people-oriented values of Strathclyde. There may be space for collaboration, but sharing work is always optional.
StrathWrites is a cross-faculty platform, hosted by staff in the Institute of Education, Humanities and Social Sciences and the student-run Strathclyde Book club. It is kindly supported by the Strathclyde Jubilee Engagement Fund.
No sessions require advance preparation. Simply bring yourself and your preferred writing tools. All rooms we are using are accessible by wheelchair.
