"I just wanted to say how much I've enjoyed the Writing course 'Play and Imagination' with Samantha Forrest. It's been very imaginative and hugely enjoyable.." - Carol
"My writing is being transformed by Samantha's sessions -- much more vivid, colourful and alive. Fun and challenging exercises, with all sorts of visual and audio stimuli, give permission to explore in a supportive environment. I now approach writing in an entirely different way, expanding my understanding and imagination for conveying aspects of (sometimes quite ordinary!) things. I have more awareness of the words I choose and the feelings I hope to evoke in a reader. It's been liberating as a new writer -- and I only signed up for fun!" - Roz
