Zoom masterclass with Paul Farley

A look at the ways in which we can surprise ourselves as writers using the things and stuff, implements and lumber, we find ourselves surrounded with at home; how the spaces of the house can be investigated in poems; and also a look at the idea of home itself, where it lies and what it might be.

"Arvon at Home creates a model to participate in inspirational tutoring for writers, at a distance. The feeling of attending to my writing life in an excellent fashion, and still having a half-day for my work and caring responsibilities at home, felt like a good balance."

—Masterclass participant

"It was an absolutely brilliant session and very very useful. And it made me realise how much I’ve missed this kind of workshop because of having children and family that I can’t leave. Now we’re all in the same boat the online stuff is truly transformative."
