Have a go at writing your own tongue-in-cheek, deliberately bad erotic fiction with writer and Plymouth Laureate of Words, Laura Horton.
With prompts and time to write, the first hour of the session will be dedicated to finding ways to write comedically about sex – be that a short story, a poem or a play. No experience necessary.
In the second hour, pieces will be read out. You can choose to read your own or have Laura or one of the invited actors read it for you (anonymously, if you'd prefer).
Imagine if Letters Live and My Dad Wrote a Porno had a baby.

Even though these events are spaces for humour, I’ve had a lot of people open up after workshops, making me realise how messy everyone’s romantic lives are. Ultimately, this sort of camaraderie makes sex less intimidating – and makes us all feel less alone.
