November Muse
The Muse Agency Press is delighted to announce our November Muse will be starting next Wednesday 12 November 2025, 12 noon-1pm (UK GMT)
“The quiet transition from autumn to winter is not a bad time at all. It’s a time for protecting and securing things and for making sure you’ve got in as many supplies as you can. It’s nice to gather together everything you possess as close to you as possible, to store up your warmth and your thoughts and burrow yourself into a deep hole inside, a core of safety where you can defend what is important and precious and our very own.”
Tove Jansson, Moominvalley in November
It was our final session of the Autumn Muse last week. Through September and October we wrote about mud and leaving footprints; open landscapes and lonely cottages. We thought about the joy of stones, about binding sheaves, and ways of assembling the earth. We had encounters with nature and wildlife and the voices of the dead. And we closed with some nocturnal Halloween visits.
We were inspired by writers, poets, and artists, including: Jane Austen, Bernadette Cremin, Naomi Foyle, Sir James Frazer, John Glenday, Jane Hirshfield, Angie Hunt, Lara Maiklem, David Mason, Alice Oswald, and Robert Seethaler.
It was such a joy to write together.
Now we’re transitioning gently from autumn to winter with our November Muse, starting next week. Wednesday 12 November to Wednesday 26 November 2025, 12-1pm (UK GMT) - Online via Zoom
If you would like to write in an encouraging and supportive group, do consider joining us for the November Muse.
A series of three creative writing workshops designed for both beginners who are just setting out on their creative writing journey, and for writers who would like to use a weekly session to spark some new writing.
Each workshop will last an hour and will involve exercises to spark new pieces of writing. We will write together and there will be an opportunity to share what we write for those who would like to.
“I have so loved writing with the group during the last Muse. Thank you both for being so gently inspiring. It’s so good to be in the beautiful safe space you have created and to feel part of that non-judgy community.” Nancy
“Each and every session with The Muse Agency is an utter delight! The topics, themes, and prompts are inspiring and can fire the imagination of even the rustiest creative writer, as I was. Sharing work is welcome, but never required, and the space is held with kindness and deep joy. These sessions make a powerful difference to writers at any stage of their writing career.” Kylie
“The Muse Agency classes are really special. In this friendly online group, my writing became freer, more poetic and I generated new material I was surprised by and often happy with.” Laura
