About us

Join us for a chance to sharpen your writing skills without shelling out at this free hermit-crab fiction workshop.

Hermit crabs are creative users of empty shells or other hollow objects as a shelter to protect themselves from predators. And you can pick up, re-use and put into practice practical tools to improve your writing in this session run by a creative writing tutor.

Learn how hermit-crab fiction can be made from formal written structures such as obituaries, newspaper notices, shopping lists, board game rules or FAQs and even a parking ticket!

Just bring along pen, pencil, paper and your enthusiasm.

This free session is made available by the Plymouth Athenaeum Writers' Group.

Places are free and available to all.
