About The Event
The tarot is a treasure trove of inspiration and creative prompts, making it a potentially sensational tool for writers.
In her first ever in-person workshop at Treadwell's, seasoned storyteller and professional tarot reader Bernadette Russell teaches participants how to mine these evocative images to produce their own creative pieces. Using the classic Rider-Waite-Smith tarot, the group dives into the archetypes of the Major Arcana cards. Expect to do some meditative journeying into the images and meet their 'characters' in a whole new way. There will also be a retelling of a short tarot-inspired tale. Afterwards, participants will be invited to create their own pieces using prompts, free writing and timed exercises. Note: there will be no sharing of work, so attendees are free to explore and experiment with their ideas safely.
Ideal for anyone interested in the power of words, this workshop is equally suitable for experienced and new writers…
