On each of these they write an event, a line of dialogue, a question, a description, a dilemma - with the idea that these possibly disparate ideas are part of longer narrative. If doing this with plot events alone, it can be useful to start with an event/dilemma and work backwards to causes as well as forwards to consequences. (3 or 4 minutes) b) Sequences and titles: Shuffle the cards/slips of paper and pass on to the next person who places them in their own narrative order, using at least 3 of the cards. They can add up to two cards. They should devise 2 alternative titles for the story - and chapter 'headings' if they wish. (An extra stage might be to draw up a list of major and minor characters.) c) Chapters and details: These slips are passed on to another writer who chooses one 'chapter' heading/prompt to write about for about 5 to 10 minutes. d) Sharing and reflecting: When the beginnings of 'chapters' have been written, the writer should share their writing. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/1633344870979-UJO53EIOE5HGXAES8FMU/unsplash-image-rPOmLGwai2w.jpg Collaborating - Ostinato writing Each person begins a ten syllable line at the top of the paper, then passes on to the person on their left. Now each person reads line and composes a second beneath continuing the sense and incorporating ONE word from the previous line. This continues for 6 or 8 turns. Last turn is to read though and give the poem a title. Then read out! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/1633687148341-WM8UX2MMZ3CDKD8EP0J5/unsplash-image-82TpEld0_e4.jpg Collaborating - bring and share Each person contributes a character, an object, an action and a place each to one of four different piles/envelopes.

Variations include: writing visual or verbal memories involving that word; reflecting on where our feelings about words come from, or the effect of the words' sound on our understanding, and discussing how culture-specific such reactions might be. https://www.nationalwritingproject.uk/nwp-principles daily 0.75 2019-11-10 https://www.nationalwritingproject.uk/publications daily 0.75 2021-03-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/1614961400759-E1N61ZPIKYLAZWK2XH1Z/Teaching%25252BEnglish%25252Bpebbles.jpg Publications - National Writing Project (UK) Ten Years and Still Writing Jeni Smith, Simon Wrigley and Theresa Gooda reflect on ten years of the National Writing Project (UK), with the help of NWP teacher colleagues. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/1575542545191-UVPDKHQJPYVNTCOE639Z/arle-lisbon_3%2B%25281%2529.jpg Publications Graham Parr and Lorna Smith https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/1575543211518-VRSMJ1RNFNZMXUKERM3X/introducing-teachers.jpg Publications https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/1575544859529-K85V6XVATIRULACL8EXO/TEDxNorwichBLACK-300x131.jpg Publications https://www.nationalwritingproject.uk/starting daily 0.75 2021-11-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/1579879728035-XDLQ6XCSUE7XFFROZL1N/image-asset.jpeg Starting https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/1579881068159-MD95SH4BJ744RTBN4H7V/image-asset.jpeg Starting https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/1597508999588-4ZLJ2OOPVP0QU3OKEICW/image-asset.jpeg Starting https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/1579881164006-77YOZ5ZIJR57C0KLCX8T/image-asset.jpeg Starting https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/1597509420263-SFXW1KA0KXE709N6Z0DG/image-asset.jpeg Starting https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/1614968424748-GAT6YNSWN61L16F7465X/unsplash-image-DgugiZUfH9k.jpg Starting https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/1619785167445-PY98B0MTJXLL8ZUUHPTS/unsplash-image-J4u21I2WV0I.jpg Starting https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/1621928581795-CH8W3113FUMXQEL7YD13/unsplash-image-C2zhShTnl5I.jpg Starting - SIGNS AND LABELS Here is a genuine four-line example found in swimming pool changing rooms: Out of order This hairdryer is out of order Please use an alternative hair dryer We apologise for any inconvenience Discuss why someone might have thought that 'out of order' was somehow insufficient. Take any sign and devise similar 'additional lines' or 'translations'. Look around the space you are in and devise 5 signs/labels which might be attached to something. Reading your sign aloud can challenge your group to infer where the sign might be attached. This is particularly effective if you have more than one obvious place as it begins to tease out the metaphorical potential. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/1621928757506-N5D8S4SB4SBFI7AZCUCE/unsplash-image-sS1YLMEoDqA.jpg Starting - starter sentence Take a 'starter sentence' - or choice of starter sentences - and write for 3 minutes.

Write for one or ten or twenty minutes, and then stop. Keep your hand moving until the time is up. Do not pause to stare into space or to read what you've written. Write quickly but not in a hurry. Pay no attention to grammar, spelling, punctuation, neatness, or style. Nobody else needs to read what you produce here. The correctness and quality of what you write do not matter; the act of writing does. If you get off the topic or run out of ideas, keep writing anyway. If necessary, write nonsense or whatever comes into your head, or simply scribble: anything to keep the hand moving. If you feel bored or uncomfortable as you're writing, ask yourself what's bothering you and write about that. When the time is up, look over what you've written, and mark passages that contain ideas or phrases that might be worth keeping or elaborating on in a subsequent free-writing session. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/1636379699009-M90MRNAWGZWM4GQ8AY12/unsplash-image-2Wv9VnwzeeI.jpg Starting - picture or photo Two or three people look at the same picture or photograph and discuss it - then, separately, each writer jots down: three things that are happening in the photo; what is happening just outside the frame of the picture/photo?; what might have happened 5 minutes before this photo was taken ... and 5 minutes after?; what might the photographer/artist have been thinking as she/he took the photo? Writers then compare and discuss what they have written - or use their ideas as a starting point for some writing. https://www.nationalwritingproject.uk/adventuring daily 0.75 2023-02-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/1619715362440-W2PO5PILR7IGHPU5PDXT/unsplash-image-ttpNCevA1tA.jpg Adventuring https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/1614356728650-JNJKYAME6L7DA4KUXTTR/image-asset.jpeg Adventuring https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/79d7e14d-2c16-4e61-9da1-47c14314e5f6/1464083953_1.png Adventuring - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/1620049669044-GCX18CP5HX25JQZYK9LL/unsplash-image-Biqd73GEtnc.jpg Adventuring https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/1629902146946-AMV0R3UJ1CF3GOJPOYQK/writing+walk.jpg Adventuring - writing walk Booklet All you need are two pieces of A4 paper to make each booklet - one for your printed cover and another for a blank sheet inside. Decide what cover and prompts you want. After printing, assemble by following the small books instructions. Now you can start your language 'treasure hunt' - go for a writing walk around the school grounds, local museum - or further afield. Such exercises can be 'front-loaded' with language - searching for phrases in related texts can sharpen attention to vocabulary, voice, mode and register. Prompts can be as closed or open as you wish. Writing walks are particularly valuable for broadening sensation to understandings beyond the classroom. The tactile and sensory reality gives meaning to words, and being outdoors stimulates new conversation, new ideas and fresh writing. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/1633686175664-LDL9JS2YK7X6337LZMPF/lists.png Adventuring - let’s go on a list hunt! The two lists illustrated opposite come from two locations in London only 100 yards from each other. One is from a brass Thames-side war memorial - names of submarines lost in 1939-1945; the other is from a railway map of stations to Sevenoaks. There are interestingly different word patterns in the two lists. What lists can you find in your environment? What purposes do they anticipate in their readers? What notion and order hold them together? What stories do they tell? What situations, relationships, feelings and values do they provoke? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/1634300916224-BNHWTDFP3W4I0F6U38V4/unsplash-image-PwQHfxo3Q2Y.jpg Adventuring - Developing ideas These ideas are offered as workshop adaptations of Garth Nix's ‘9 Stages of a Novel'. 1. Record the following 9 snapshots/ideas in your journal: a person's behaviour you've noted recently a distinctive sound that you've heard a piece of technology a scene from history/ the radio/TV/internet news words or a scene from a book that you've read/ a sign that you've seen something someone else has told you about something that you can imagine a landscape a town you've visited recently https://www.nationalwritingproject.uk/making daily 0.75 2023-06-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/1615563639198-HG7CW9R5DHGZG6ERBPCS/Origami%2Bbook.jpg Making - simple folded book Take a rectangle of paper – A4 will do. A3 is ideal for younger children, A5 produces fairy sized books. Fold in half from top to bottom. Unfold. Fold in half from side to side. Unfold. Fold sides to middle to create eight sections. Cut the central fold as shown on photo 3. Fold along the horizontal line and pinch together the outside pages, pushing them towards the centre. You may have to fold the creases in both directions to sharpen them. Fold the pages over to form the book. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/1629729401730-PB6A8CS2BRCRQUFRHFPQ/flipbooks.png Making - simple flip books To make 30 flip books, simply take 30 pieces of A4 paper in assorted colours. Cut paper into four equal horizontal widths, shuffles and assemble four-leaf (8-page) booklets. To hold them, tightly multi-fold the 'spine' (as in photo), or staple. This format provides many ways of playing with language combinations. (Read Nick Sharatt's 'Ketchup on your Cornflakes?’) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/1630927225351-ZLPRJ15HFGCRE6436VTX/smallbooks5.png Making - small books The white sheet is folded into 8 equal rectangles, and then torn or cut three-quarters of the length down the middle. This allows it to be folded, and later inserted into the pink cover. The pink cover is made by first taking the shorter edge, aligning it just 2 mm short of the opposite edge, and folding it flat. Open it out, rotate the paper 180 degrees and repeat the process so that there are two parallel creases in the middle of the paper, about 2 mm apart. This will later form the spine. Now, open the paper out and fold it along its length so that each edge is about 1 cm short of its opposite. Finally take one of the narrow edges and align it 2 mm short of the nearer centre fold. Press down and crease. Rotate the paper 180 degrees and repeat with the other narrow edge. To assemble the 'book', slide the outer pages of the white sheet into the pouches created by the folds of the pink sheet. The 2 mm gaps should allow sufficient space to slide the white paper in, and not leave the book too loose. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/1630927299070-MI2MOXYSNXXCT33MP5EZ/small+books1.png Making - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/1624104284122-6BJ17UXRWZAYS72B3LK1/fullsizeoutput_1a47.jpeg Making - People-shaped book 1 Take a piece of A4 paper, or A3 if you would like a larger book. Fold it in half in landscape position. Fold into a zigzag (concertina) book: in half and sides to middle to create a four page zigzag. Fold it so all the pages lie together and cut a head and shoulders shape from the upper part of the page. Cut through all pages at once. TAKE CARE to leave a section of fold at the top so that the pages don’t come away separately. It means that your person, inevitably, has rather a flat-topped head. Make sure there are side folds as well, otherwise you will have a set of separate paper dolls. You can sketch out the shape in pencil if you like. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/1624104458167-KD401Y33AR07RO31DCF0/fullsizeoutput_1a46.jpeg Making https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/1624104548148-REWCCPEYHT62JOZAJ27O/IMG_7550.jpeg Making https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/1624104430949-UP66VCHCNPV9BUUGRDY6/IMG_7552.jpeg Making https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/1624118567791-ME0B5USX2ATOMJW32QVN/IMG_7555.jpeg Making - Person-shaped book 2 Having followed the instructions above to make a basic person-shaped book, you may like to add a lift up flap so that you can write beneath the flap as well as on top. Maybe here is the place for inner thoughts or hidden feelings. Open out the folded pages so that you have the whole page and fold that into a zigzag again, along the vertical folds. Place the book so that the front sheets are at the bottom, facing you and the back sheets upside down above them. Cut two slits through the pile of folded front sheets to make a lift up flap. Refold the book in its original zigzag. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/1624118604477-L2CLNJ0C8HUKSFRZEG54/IMG_7556.jpeg Making - People-shaped book 3 If you would like a folded person with legs, start as before with an A4 sheet of paper placed in landscape position. Fold the top edge down but not all the way. Leave a margin of about 5cm at the bottom. This is where you will cut the legs. Now fold the book as a zigzag and cut head and shoulders from the top section, as before, remembering to keep a fold at the top of the head so the pages stay together. Unfold and refold the book as before and cut the slits in the upper sheet to create the flaps. Fold back to the original book form. Cut the legs and feet from the single layer at the bottom of the book. Cut the legs quite wide and make the feet substantial if you want the book to stand up. I cut the legs last so that it is less fiddly to open and refold the book in order to cut the flaps. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/1624119014938-7RMX4SHDGWLSZR1URS5M/fullsizeoutput_1a48+%281%29.jpeg Making - DANCING dolls, gormley style You probably know how to make dancing doll chains. You take a strip of paper and fold into a concertina and then cut out your dancing doll. The figures must join at the hands and possibly the feet also so that they stay in a chain. They are usually quite stiff little figures with stiff outstretched arms and a pair of straight legs. During the first lockdown, last year, First Site Gallery in Colchester created a really imaginative collection of ideas for making, inspired by contemporary artists. Anthony Gormley’s contribution was to suggest we make dancing dolls. But his cut out figures stretched and lunged, jumped and leaned over: a great innovation and they make an entrancing display. The figures could be decorated with words or speech bubbles. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/1615557154200-UQB5M0VPIQL9S7UO90U3/Folded%2Bbox.jpg Making - PAPER BOX Take a piece of A4 paper. Fold in half from top to bottom in portrait position. Keep the folded edge at the bottom. Fold the top half down to fold in half again. Fold the top corners down to meet the bottom edge to make diagonal creases. Fold the bottom corners to the top edge to make two more diagonal creases. Where the diagonal creases end, fold left and right edges towards the middle panel. These folds create the square sides of the box. Unfold the sheet so that it is just folded in half once. Fold down the top corners on the front sheet. Fold up the bottom corners. Fold the top half of the sheet down. Pull the front section forward to make the box shape. Bring the last section forward to complete the box shape. Tuck the triangular flaps into the diagonal pockets on either side of the box. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/1615557491530-3JT5K1PSZX05N8W1PNZE/Slipcase%2Bfor%2Borigami%2Bbook.jpg Making - SLIPCASE FOR ORIGAMI BOOK (SQUARE) Take one sheet of A4 paper. In landscape position fold it into three. An easy way to do so is to place a ruler diagonally across the sheet of paper so that it measure a multiple of three. In this case, twelve inches. Mark the paper at 4 and 8 inches to guide your folds. Fold the left hand panel behind the sheet. Fold the corners on the left to the vertical crease to create diagonal folds. Fold the sheet horizontally using the edge of the folded triangle as your guide. You are creating the narrow gulley that will hold the book. Fold the left panel forwards over the right panel. Pull the pocket forwards to make it into the slip case. https://www.nationalwritingproject.uk/features daily 0.75 2026-04-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/fdda9ae9-8af4-4521-a2b4-1eea2645d67d/whenwelivedinuncleshatheader.jpg Groups' Latest - A Postcard from norwich Jeni Smith, Easter 2026 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/1759320515945-EF2GL4NRVW4BZECGCHML/unsplash-image-GQSus83k5oM.jpg Groups' Latest - UEA Norwich, september 2025 Alicia Hoad reflects on senses in writing after September’s meeting. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/1759319991303-JBD7MKJLBSQLM68KFK24/image-asset.jpeg Groups' Latest - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/b7a5ea2b-4052-440a-ad01-09a3f50b5d9c/Wellcome.jpg Groups' Latest - London free writers april 2025 Jeni Smith joined the London Free Writers group in April at the Wellcome Collection. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/35ee1389-c5d2-405c-815b-5358565ef416/Norwich_Cathedral.jpg Groups' Latest - UEA NORWICH July 2023 Jeni Smith writes: Last Saturday, 22nd July, four of us met to write in Norwich.

The coffee and pastries are good, provided by Bread Source. And there was so much to talk about. We talked for longer than usual before we started writing and that was good. As so often, the conversation ranged through the personal and the academic, tales of school, anticipated holidays, reading recommendations and the nature of language. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/9bb53043-ff7f-4b43-b17d-7fc1fc50a480/20230422_121754.jpeg Groups' Latest - UEA Norwich April 2023 Jeni Smith writes: On Saturday 22nd April, five of us gathered around a square table in the corner of Norwich Cathedral Refectory and had fun with words. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/1675790305841-QFH1MZXLUPPYYJS9QWA8/unsplash-image-ktU47o88mUY.jpg Groups' Latest - UEA Norwich February 2023 Jeni Smith writes: The Norwich group met again at the cathedral on Saturday 4th February for a morning of writing, talk and general merriment. with plenty of time to share and drink coffee. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/a5888395-9599-4b64-8709-155dfcb7015d/Higgins+ph.+hd+discussing+4.2.23.jpg Groups' Latest - Bedford february 2023 Simon Wrigley writes: On February 4 2023 the Bedford Group, meeting at the Higgins museum, undertook the collaborative writing exercise Naming Stones.

They also ate a lot of banana cake, drank several cups of tea and thoroughly enjoyed being face to face for the first time since January 2020.

In quick succession, some of the following prompts are read aloud – about one every 30 seconds or so - and the writers scribble immediate thoughts in response. They don’t need to respond to all of them, so the reader should not wait till every writer has ‘finished’. Writers can decide which ones they use later. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/1626801489891-IQFTSTCBRDTP3KFYSSR2/unsplash-image-XWDMmk-yW7Q.jpg Interpreting - colours: what’s in a name? Here is an image of some paint samples printed on strips of card by a major paint company, picked up for free at a paint retailer. These paint colours are given names, as well as numbers. In this case they are also labeled in one of the categories - calm, rich, fresh, warm. (It would be a rare paint company that dreamt up categories of stressy, skint, stale and parky. Perhaps it would make no less sense, but sales might be poor. Associations matter.) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/1626856710906-13HGD9JR7X464REWGKB9/unsplash-image-oDFMhjkqA4Y.jpg Interpreting - THINGS I’ve Learned Read Kate Bingham’s poem ‘Things I’ve Learned at University’ and write another list of ‘things’ learned…about teaching, family life, pets…anything.

I do have a safe space for long pieces of writing at the table in my daughter’s room, but that has been invaded by patchwork pieces at the moment. Quite often I write outside and there is all the walking when I write in my head. Many of my writing spaces are café tables, with a cup of something nearby and one of my favourite spaces was a bare table in a house on a Finnish island, overlooking a boat shed and the water beyond. At the moment, perhaps, the kitchen table is where I write most often with the view to the garden and coffee close by. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/1591785965614-LHVNM3GYD163QB4QF4PI/Little%2BAcorns%2B1.jpg Writing Spaces - Theresa Gooda I have a noisy, busy household, so my writing space is tucked away at the bottom of the garden, away from all the hustle and bustle. It’s peaceful and private and only a little bit spidery. It contains a day bed for leaning back and proofreading - an idea stolen from Rudyard Kipling after visiting Bateman’s. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/1591785524163-4938E7W8Z8STHREAKT6A/RWHITE+A+Space+to+Write.jpg Writing Spaces - rebecca white I can write anywhere but I particularly love the feeling of resting a notepad on my knee and curling into the huge cushion on my sofa, preferably with a blanket over me and a cup of tea by my side. In fact, that’s all I need from a writing space – somewhere comfy with place for a mug. As a teenager, I loved writing in public, creating this image of myself as someone very enigmatic with interesting stories to tell. I still like the act of writing surrounded by people but it now feels very different, as if my pad and pen are a bit of a forcefield from the rest of the world. People don’t interrupt writers in public, assuming it is a vitally important task we are carrying out. Which of course, it is! Is anything more important than creating new worlds? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/1591785465764-NGUAFYOYR3Z27LM34ZN2/Nikkibed.jpeg Writing Spaces - Nikki garrard Roald Dahl wrote in a sleeping bag so I probably shouldn’t be embarrassed to admit I write in bed. It’s a forgiving space for first drafts, warm and cocooning. Now, editing what I’ve written is another matter. For me, that’s best done on an uncomfortable chair in the kitchen with its harsh lights and hard surfaces. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7956ce629a072d75bc506e/1591785328813-041FPP1SM8ZYRLVB9IF6/StephenJacklin.jpg Writing Spaces - stephen jacklin I feel as comfortable writing inside as I do outside.
