Creative Writing for Self-Expression and Wellbeing

Incidentally, earlier this week I completed a short Children’s and Y.A. fiction course at Big Smoke (as a participant this time). Based on the group’s interests there ended up being quite a focus on picture books, which was a wonderful way to connect with that ‘inner child’ power of imagination – and even better to be able to do so in collaboration with like-minded adults. The magical creativity of visuals such as the below, from Tao Nyeu’s ‘Wonder Bear,’ should never be just for kids!
