For our September workshop we were joined by Matthew
Bellwood, local storyteller and author of 365 stories, for a chance for the
Roses to get their creative juices flowing and try their hand and storytelling.
Matthew started out by telling the group a chilling ghost
story before giving them some prompts so they could go off and start writing
their own spooky tales.
The group proved to be adept and writing their own stories
with tales of fishermen and their dead wives, teachers and a strange pupil, a
mummified friend, a wild woman, circus tents and going back in time
entertaining the audience.
