Write Queer London Workshop
Location: The Poetry Society Studio, 1st floor
22 Betterton Street
London WC2H 9BX
UntoldLondon is running its second annual Queer History Writing Prize in association with Chroma Queer Arts Journal. London has long been a place to find soul-mates, friends, lovers and a political haven from persecution. The competition welcomes fact, fiction and poetry about gay life, and the history of gay lives in London.
To inspire creativity poet Peter Daniels will be running a workshop looking at the poem as a little story or drama giving an individual account of what it means to be gay in London both past and present.
Places are free, but please do let The Poetry Society know if you are planning to attend; please contact Alan Ward on 020 7420 9886 or email marketingassistant@poetrysociety.org.uk
