I am excited to let you know that Joanne Fedler has arrived in Rome. She is facilitating our Writing and Walking Adventure in Tuscany with over 20 hours of writing tuition. A small group of 14 women are joining this trip to beautiful Tuscany and Cinque Terre.
Writing and walking are twin experiences. Both journeys must be undertaken step by step, sometimes through unknown territories.
You need no writing experience, no writing skills, and no fancy notebooks. No matter how good or bad you think you are at writing, you will surprise yourself as each day, in the exquisite setting of Tuscany and Cinque Terre, we use our bodies, our senses and our imaginations to converse with the landscape, the people, the tastes and the inspirations of our surroundings.
Joanne Fedler is the best selling author of Secret Mothers' Business, Things Without A Name and When Hungry, Eat.
You will learn how to use writing as a tool for reflection, processing, contemplation and ‘emotional footage’. You’ll be introduced to some of the cornerstones of the writer’s way in the world: deep observation, use of metaphor, listening – to places and people, connecting to the landscape, and using the body and all its senses. Through writing, we harvest our experiences, and press them through the distillery of the heart.
Tuscany is a land where the past lives alongside the present – its centuries-old traditions permeate daily life. Come to Tuscany and discover the hidden corners of an ancient land. Take in the essence of this enchanted landscape, from the harmony of its sun-soaked countryside to the gentle contours of its hill towns, to the warmth and wit of its people. Tuscany from the inside out ... an insider’s experience that helps you take part in the true Tuscan way of life.
