Dear fellow writer,
Welcome to Week 2 of Writing in Colour (aka Writing in Color), a 6-week short course co-created and co-facilitated with Sophie Nicholls.
In this 20-minute video, Sophie discusses how colour can help us reinvigorate the relationship between our experience and our words.
After watching the video, we encourage you to experiment with the following activities, or feel free to come up with your own variations:
Paint a still life with words.
Find new colour language.
Write an autobiography of a colour.
This 6-week workshop series is free for WriteSPACE members, paid subscribers to Helen’s Word, and members of Sophie’s WRITE! Club.
Visit our zine page to print out your own sequence of 6 zines (pronounced “zeens”), one for each weekly module. At the end of the course, we’ll invite you to submit photos of your creations for a celebratory Writing in Colour gallery.
Enjoy!
