Short Story Competition Ready!

Creative Writing Course

6 WEEK COURSE | MORNINGS

Entering writing competitions is great fun and brilliant for building up your writer’s CV if you get placed. Join this six-week course where, at the end of it, you’ll have a 2000 word short story that you can be proud of, and is competition ready.

The course will include a workshopping session where you’ll be given feedback from me and the rest of the attendees, and you will also give feedback on their short stories.

You’ll be expected to do a lot of reading and writing in between sessions, and a full course outline and reading list will be sent once you’ve signed up. Places are limited to eight so everyone (and their stories) are given a lot of attention.
