It is important to me that learning about creative writing is an enjoyable and exciting experience. Together we can work on your writing skills - everything from style, flow, grammar, research, editing, writing exercises, discussion topics, and more.

A general overview of a full course would be:
- Decide what type of novel or short story you want to write
- Learn how to develop or evolve your plot
- Learn how to create realistic, three-dimensional characters
- Learn how to compose memorable settings and world building
- Learn about authenticity and verisimilitude in writing
- Obtain a deeper understanding of how to write dialogue
- Develop editing skills for rewrites
- Gain some understanding of the world of publishing
- Develop your ideas through writing and discussion exercises
- Complete exercises that will help you think about aspects of your novel that you haven't thought of before

These are broadly the topics that we can cover, but each class is tailored to each individual student, and we can focus on what you are most interested in learning.

I have an MA in Novel Writing from Middlesex University London. I have also been proofreading and editing clients' novels for 4 years.

I teach creative writing to people of all ages and will adapt classes accordingly. Kids, teens, and adults are welcome in my classes. Our lessons together will typically be one hour in length, but if you wish we can double book, book full days/workshops, or set up multiple lessons. Whatever you need.
