The default English shapes our life, creating hierarchy, separating us from our surroundings, and telling us what is law, money, time, successful, normal, spiritual. But what does our body already know, and where are ‘official’ words that honour this? In this creative writing workshop, using gentle prompts, quiet writing time and optional sharing, we’ll look into the missing nomenclature of history, experiment with everyday language that frames how we see ourselves and the world, identify heavy or dead words in our life, rename our own experiences, and create short fragments of writing that unite memory, sensation and story.
