Spiel Unlimited courses at Ceridwen in Carmarthenshire


Fancy time away freeing up your creative juices with like-minded people? Want to pick up a pen, let your imagination wander, cast your words to the winds? Ever thought of treating yourself to a writing weekend?

Ceridwen

Ceridwen is all about inspiration. Here you will enjoy fabulous food, cheerful companionship, spectacular scenery, and workshops that entertain, engage and exhilarate – giving you the space to create. Invention. Expression. Freedom.

Whether your interest is in poetry, prose or performance, each course will provide opportunities for you to explore or expand your writing skills. Liven up lines, pep up paragraphs, stanza and deliver. Take your pick from a variety of exercises, discussions, readings, individual tutorials, group sessions, games, walks… and other adventures to stretch both brain and body!

All courses will be delivered by writers Marcus Moore and Sara-Jane Arbury, who work together as Spiel Unlimited. Marcus has written ’Call My Bluff’ scripts for the BBC, had poems published by Macmillan, and run countless workshops in schools, libraries and prisons. Sara-Jane directs the voices off programme for Cheltenham Literature Festival, has toured nationally as a performer in the Bloodaxe production of Staying Alive, and was recently Herefordshire’s first writer-in-residence.

The Ceridwen Centre is a large, converted old smithy, tucked away in the beautiful Teifi Valley, only 25 minutes by road from Carmarthen. Have a look at www.ceridwencentre.co.uk for more details.
