Lumb Bank - revisited!
The week before last, my primary human and I took a trip up to Hebden Bridge to attend a week-long tutored writing retreat at Ted Hughes' house, Lumb Bank. We felt a great sense of nostalgia on arrival as this was where my human finished the first draft of her novel, back in September 2015.
The workshops were enhanced by beautiful table decorations, and there was much literary discussion.
While my human worked hard at her writing, I enjoyed the glorious view from our attic room:
The weather was wonderful all week, so we did managed to get outside at some points to enjoy the lovely grounds:
We may not have felt it so much back in London, but spring had definitely sprung up in Yorkshire!
There were lots of flowers to appreciate, so we did our best:
We made some new friends, my human wrote an entirely new story, and there was much enjoyment in listening to the other writers' work on the last night. It really was a joy to be back at Lumb Bank, and I hope we will go there again in the future.
