Creative Play: mentoring programme 2026

"Creativity isn't a problem to solve – it's a field to wander in!"

Creative Play is a year-long mentoring container for curious writers who want to feel calmer, braver, and more connected to their creative self. Together, we make space for softness, silliness, experimentation, imagination, and the inner child who still wants to scribble, invent, pretend, and explore.

With therapeutic grounding (sound, energy, breath), gentle accountability, and personalised support toward your writing goals, this is a programme designed to help you grow with kindness – not pressure – and to evolve your voice in a way that feels naturally joyful.

Magic, memoir, and mudflats

A semi-mystical immersion into wild wetland habitats: their myths, magic, and meaning.

Encompassing nature writing, life writing, poetry, and magical memoir from a working-class woman’s perspective whilst drawing from history, science, mythology and folklore, Bog Witch is a lyrical, semi-mystical immersion into wild wetland areas.

From fens to peatlands, mires to marshes, swamps to lagoons, these diverse habitats are more than just mud, offering a richesse of flora and fauna, herbs and healing plants, as well as an unusual opportunity for our own inner healing and spiritual growth.

Join poet Mab Jones on her journey into the wilds and learn how brightness and beauty, birdsong and brilliance, exist even in the darkest, most misunderstood places.
