GOING PLACES – for beginner and more experienced writers.

This practical workshop will explore different ways of writing about journeys. We will be looking at literary forms associated with journeys – haiku, journals, logs, postcards home – as well as drawing inspiration from maps, instant books, and the traditional ballad form. Going Places draws on themes from the Human Race exhibition, including ingenuity, preparation, and endurance.

Bob Pegg is a writer, musician and storyteller who lives in Strathpeffer. His collection Highland Folk Tales was recently published by the History Press. He is particularly interested in the way stories are linked to landscape, and has worked with Highland Travellers on projects related to this theme.
