There are stories happening all around us, if only we take some time to sit and watch them unfold. Note it all down, submit it, and we'll write your snippets into new fictional stories that will be published on the Snippet blog.
Participants will be asked to walk and find somewhere to sit, ideally somewhere with lots of people or activity. Be open to what's going on around you, you will be given three slips of paper to fill out titled describe a place, describe a person, note down snippets of conversation or speech. Photos, sketches etc are also welcomed.
Come along to the free workshop on Saturday 1st March at 2pm. Meet at Southgate, near the Apple Store (there will be various other projects going on for Bath Lit Fest. Look out for the t-shirts). We will spend an hour observing the people, the places and the conversations that happen around us. These snippets will be collected at the end of the workshop and submitted to this blog. Some snippets will be selected as prompts to generate story ideas.
If you are a writer or photographer, get in touch for a chance at getting your writing or photography published here.
We haven't done the workshop yet, so far there is no material to share. But here's an idea of the kinds of characters that are wandering around out there just waiting to inspire us:
