Take a bow Sarah, Alan and Kathryn. Your wisdom, insight, humour and compassion made this a brilliant 'creativity week'. I've done writing courses before - but never with this amount of heart. I also loved Alan and Sarah's personal stories of their writing journeys. And Kathryn's good vibes should be bottled and sold to anyone who wants to still their mind by moving their body! Thank you.
