OuLiPo: a creative literary method, with guest Terry Freedman
Manage episode 362422465 series 3455973
Today, I’m speaking with Terry Freedman about Oulipo and experimentation with writing, which are both part of a new thread on Terry’s Substack publication called Eclecticism: Reflections on literature and life. He will also be offering a workshop on this topic next month.
Terry has spent his career in education, first as a teacher of Economics, then as a teacher of Computing, followed by spells in a government body, local authority and independent consultancy. He’s been a freelance writer in the field of education since 1989, and also writes about education, literature, writing and anything else that takes his fancy.
