Delighted to have Peter Urpeth join us as a guest group facilitator for last week's Catch 23 Writers Group. Below are a few words about Peter and a few words from Peter about the session;
Peter Urpeth is a writer, performance poet, musician, and filmmaker whose words have appeared in numerous publications, a novel and two collections of poetry. He also works as a writing mentor, workshop leader, creative editor, and journalist.
In 2024, Peter worked with the writing group at Catch23 to produce and publish a collection of work titled 'Island Life-A Transfer of Grace’.
Following last week's session with the group Peter commented:
“I love working with the writers’ group at Catch 23. This time, we worked with two old black and white photos I found in a flea market in Brighton to produce stories, characterisations, and story-worlds connecting the unrelated images.
“As always, the time set aside for reading the work as a group was so much fun, with pieces ranging from the hilarious to the deeply poignant. I can’t wait to return!”
Rebecca Mahony, WIAMH Project Manager commented;
"I would just like to thank Peter on behalf or everyone in our Catch 23 Writers Group for introducing us all to fascinating topic last week."😁👍
