In the first half of this workshop, you will learn a bit about the englyn form, and in the second half we can create an englyn together, or for the most experienced, each can create an englyn.

Gyda’r mapiau darluniadol a grëwyd o’r deunydd a gasglwyd yn ystod prosiect Dilyn Dyfi yn gefndir i’r cyfan, bydd Samantha yn eich annog i fynegi’ch hun drwy gyfrwng y ffurfiau barddonol hyn, gan ddilyn themâu megis ‘afon’, ‘llif’, ‘llifogydd’, ‘tir’.

A British-Welsh poet, performer, tutor and editor Samantha lives close to the sea in West Wales where she tends an orchard and is working on her fourth collection. Previous collections include ‘ Not in these Shoes’, ‘Rock Climbing in Silk’, ‘Banjo’; pamphlets, ‘Ling di Long’ and ‘Lime & Winter’.

For a taste of the breadth of Samantha’s work you can sample the 2018, BBC ‘Between the Ears’ broadcast of Samantha’s and composer Nina Perry’a radiophonic poem exploring the sounds and stories surrounding the flow of milk out of west Wales while the Welsh landscape flows into the sea.

Mae Samantha wedi perfformio ei gwaith mewn digwyddiadau a drefnwyd gennym ni. Ar Ddiwrnod Cenedlaethol Barddoniaeth, cyflwynodd Samantha ei ‘chymorthfeydd barddoniaeth’ personol poblogaidd ac ychwanegodd hefyd ei hiwmor a’i synnwyr digrifiwch digyffelyb at ddigwyddiadau Gŵyl Amdani ym Machynlleth yn 2023.

Mae’n bleser ei chroesawu hi’n ôl.

Samantha has performed her work at events organised by us, at our National Poetry Day celebrations. She has provided her popular one-to-one ‘poetry surgeries’ and added her wry sense of humour and inimitable wit to events at the Amdani Fachynlleth Festival in 2023.
