Reflecting on the Seasons - Conversations with Nature #4

You are warmly invited to our fourth workshop for Conversations with Nature. 

Please come and share some of your experiences of nature and any writing for nature you may have started. Perhaps from previous QAN workshops on nature or as a complete newcomer to writing.

We will have some prompts to help us with writing for the poetry anthology we hope to create or just for the enjoyment of engaging with nature through our pens or digital fingers!
