April 2 and 9       Choice words – make your words count

Tutor: Aileen Boyer

 

Writing the ordinary is a journey of exploration and discovery. It requires us to look beyond the surface and find meaning in the everyday moments of life. By developing an awareness of the power of words and engaging in writing exercises, we can transform the ordinary into something extraordinary. So, come on this journey with me and explore the stories and poetry hidden in the ordinary. Together, we can uncover the beauty and fascination that lie just beneath the surface of our daily lives.
