Description
Writing workshop at National Association of Writers in Education Conference 2019. Collaborative psychogeography. Later published as 'A New Map of an Old City' (Writing in Education Winter 2019).'**Special Event** The Devil and the Details** – Oz Hardwick & Amina Alyal
(includes tour of York – meet at reception) York, according to fgures released Oct 2018, receives 6.9 million visitors yearly, with the Jorvik Viking Centre, York Minster and, of course, the Shambles being on many ‘must see’ lists. For
this, the 3rd – and last for now – NAWE conference in the city, local writers Oz Hardwick and Amina Alyal will lead a leisurely 90-min walk around some less famous locations as we think about fnding inspiration in everyday surroundings (and enjoy a little of this wonderful city). Participants may want to take a psychogeo-graphical approach, as Iain Sinclair does walking the M25 in London Orbital (Penguin 2003), Will Self walking from London to New York in Psycho-geography (Bloomsbury 2007), or Lauren Elkin walking cities in Flaneuse (Vintage 2017).'
