Join Gwyneth and Pascale in writing as deeply as you dare into imagination’s bestiaries, during group workshops and bespoke individual sessions with award-winning poets who are pioneers of their own creaturely wilds.

With the arrival of milder temperatures, join us in the hills to reflect on your work and sharpen your focus on writing.

In this course you'll look carefully at different elements of poetry writing, demystifying things like line breaks, shape, rhythm, rhyme, voice, language, and form. You will write new poems – trying on these techniques, seeing how they feel and exploring what they can do for you and your work.

Join Shoreline of Infinity Magazine's fiction editor, Eris Young, for a sci-fi workshop, exploring what "science fiction" really is, and how to use science and tech to create conflict and shape character.

How can we hear the voices of ordinary folk, when we are forced to rely on fragmentary sources seldom created with their perspectives in mind? Drawing from his work on Orkney – a place long considered peripheral to the ‘real’ history of Scotland and Britain – historian Peter Marshall seeks to answer that question in this 90-minute online event.

A tutored retreat for those engaged on work in progress responding to climate change, in any genre, who would value a concentrated period of time in which to write, to engage with feedback, and to enjoy focused, supportive conversations with tutors and fellow writers.

You are invited to join us for a festival of creativity in Inverness! From 2022-2025, Moniack Mhor's Creativity and Care Programme has worked to enhance the creative development opportunities for care experienced young people aged 14-30 across Scotland. Join us between 12pm-8pm on the 24th May to view and experience just some of the images, music and words which have been developed thanks to the project.
