Explore identity and creative transformation in this engaging writing workshop inspired by Hugh MacDiarmid. Drawing on his shift from Christopher Grieve, you’ll examine how adopting a persona can unlock new voices. Through discussion and example, experiment with personae in your own writing within a relaxed, supportive setting.
