Fairy and Folk tales are full of magic and make believe, but they are certainly not just for children! These tales explore fundamental patterns of storytelling and uncover important truths. In this writing workshop Kate Innes will provide you with lots of visual images to get your narrative started, and a framework to build exciting adventures for your characters, leading to a satisfying, and possibly surprising, ending!
Kate Innes worked as an archaeologist, teacher and museum educator before moving to Shropshire and writing full time. Her highly acclaimedArrowsmith Trilogy of medieval novels is set in the Welsh Marches and includes some of the area’s most iconic historic sites.
