November saw the 2023 Open University Poets’ annual poetry workshop. This year it was held at Walworth Castle Hotel with award-winning tutor, Harry Man, who kept everyone busy with many stimulating prompts.

It was great to see the OU poets fortunate enough to be there take part in the workshops, in interesting and stimulating tutorials, in a poetry walk around the superb grounds and in the stimulating exercises and activities. Everyone came away with ideas and new poems to work on, which no doubt will be appearing in our future workshop magazines.

The annual workshop is one of the benefits of membership of Open University Poets. It gives members an opportunity to develop new skills as well socialise and catch up with others who share their passion.

Thanks everyone for a grand time.
