Writers Course

I did a course last summer as part of my CPD titled Writing for Teachers. Unfortunately I missed the first two days and only joined in on Day 3 of the five day course. The course was presented by Cathy Beck. It was a really wonderful course and during those three days I wrote a number of pieces and edited and re-edited them many times. I ended up with two pieces with which I was very happy. However this did not really spur me on to continue writing. I did make the odd note of ideas for possible writing but not in an organised way. No idea was progressed. I feel that this was probably due to my failure to maintain a writer's log/notebook as strongly recommended by Cathy. I have enrolled for the course again in August and hope that by repeating the experience I can renew my acquaintance with the writing process and begin again. In the meantime I will post the work from last year on this blog.
