In 2024 I’ll be running an online course that takes you through every aspect of writing a novel, from first idea to finished draft. Through 50 newsletters, 25 online write-ins and a WhatsApp support group, we will look at how to nurture the spark of an idea, push through a rough first draft and hone the work through rewriting, ending the year with a solid draft of your novel, ready to be read by beta readers or maybe agents. And I will be guiding you, inspiring you and holding you accountable every step of the way.
What You Need
- A rough idea of the kind of novel you want to write
- Around 30-60 minutes per day for your writing (we’ll look at how to find this time)
- A real passion and commitment to your writing
What You Get
- Weekly newsletters with exercises and instruction for the week’s writing – and a forum to share your results
- Regular writealongs on zoom
- Access to an online and whatsApp community of like-minded writers with weekly check ins to provide support and accountability and the opportunity to ask any questions about the writing process
- The option to buy extra mentoring or manuscript assessment at a 20% discount on my normal rates
Costs
£250 for access to the course and online and WhatsApp discussion forums
£350 for the above, plus a review of your novel plan in late February and a one-on-one 45 min zoom chat
Please get in touch to enquire about looking onto the course, either for yourself or as a gift.
