A course of weekly workshops to help you build creative confidence and move your creative writing project forward.
About this Event

This course of weekly workshops is designed to help you build momentum on a creative project, work on structure, hone your style, solve narrative problems and learn to edit your own work. It's ideal for adults who are already writing - occasionally or regularly - or want to return to writing after a break. It's been running for a year now, with a mixture of people returning and people coming for the first time. (I keep the numbers limited and have almost filled the places with my email list, so there are only a few places up for grabs here.)

Sharing work can be terrifying, no matter how much you've written before, but B-Writing classes are supportive and encouraging, and we'll build in techniques to help you work round these fears. There'll also be free drop-in online writing sessions to help you keep writing between classes.

I know life can be complex and not everyone can commit to 10 classes. I’m therefore experimenting with a payment structure that lets you choose your level of commitment while allowing us to build a core community of writers.

Option 1: The 6 session pass - £190

  • Access to 6 sessions across 10 weeks (use them whenever you can attend)
  • Access to Zoom writing sessions (usually 1-2 a week) in between sessions
  • Pay-as-you-go for any further sessions you attend. £30 per session, payable by 6pm on the day.

Option 2: Full 10 week pass - £290

  • All 10 sessions at a cheaper rate
  • A manuscript critique (up to 3000 words) from Anna
  • Access to Zoom writing sessions (usually 1-2 a week) in between sessions
