Whether you're a seasoned poet or just starting out, come share your creativity and connect with fellow writers in a relaxed and welcoming space. Don't miss this chance to get those creative juices flowing!WOMEN’S WORKThis session will be facilitated by two Penzance-based poets, Abigail Ottley and Vivienne Tregenza, both of whom launched their debut collections in 2025. Abigail and Vivienne have been collaborating to promote their respective books by offering a number of readings and workshops. This event will include a series of writing prompts drawn from examples of their work. The poems selected by each author as prompts will likely be very different both content and style. We think this is an excellent way of encouraging writers at all levels to have a bit of fun. We can pretty much promise there will be something for everyone. Do come along!Out of Eden by Abigail Ottley (Yaffle Press, May) is a celebration in poetry and prose poetry of the enduring strength and resilience of working class. It features the stories of women drawn from the author’s own family across five generations together with work that examines the mother-daughter relationship and the problem of ‘care’. Dr Rosie Jackson describes the book as a ‘flinty, uncompromising portrait of female survival’, ‘hard-hitting’ but ‘energising’ and ‘ultimately empowering’ while, for Claire Dwyer, it is a collection that ‘connects us to the realities of life and womanhood.’Vivienne Tregenza is an award-winning Cornish poet based in Penzance. Her debut collection Conversations with Magic Stones (poems in memory of Barbara Hepworth) has been nominated for both the Forward Prize for First Collection and the Seamus Heaney First Collection Prize 2026 by her publisher Indigo Dreams Publishing.Abigail Ottley writes poetry, prose poetry, memoir and, occasionally, creative non-fiction. In 2024, she placed second in the International Plaza Prose Poem Competition and won the Wildfire 150 Flash Award for the second year running. Commended in the Welshpool, Dark Poets, and What We Inherit From Water, she placed third in the International Patricia Eschen Poetry Prize (2024), going on to win the Metro Poetry Competition on the theme of Care. Abigail is a founding member of Cornwall's successful and all-female Mor PoetCollective led by Ella Walsworth-Bell.
